From All Sides is a collaboration between pianist Vince Guaraldi and guitarist Bola Sete released in February 1965 by Fantasy Records. It was Guaraldi's seventh studio album and the second of three collaborations with Sete.

Background[]

Several songs were new variations of previously recorded material. "Ginza Samba", originally titled "Ginza", was first recorded for Modern Music from San Francisco (1956), Guaraldi's debut release as a group leader.[1]

The album also includes several songs that were reimagined for future inclusion in several Peanuts soundtracks. "The Little Drummer Boy", titled "Menino Pequeno Da Bateria", would later be featured in A Charlie Brown Christmas as "My Little Drum." In addition, "Choro" is a variation of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Symphony No. 40 in G minor, K. 550, I. Molto allegro. It was revamped in 1968 for use in He's Your Dog, Charlie Brown, retitled "Schroeder's Wolfgang".[1]
