Skating - Vince Guaraldi Trio (Allison Young & Joshua Lee Turner)

[@tracythorleifson]

You know, Josh and Allison, you guys really ought to get the whole gang - Carson and Reina & Toni, and Chase, and all the rest of your friends - together, and do a full on Christmas special. It would be awesome! 😃🎄🎄🎄

[@JackFlaps]

I think they could do a 70`s style variety show

[@brooklynmoede9480]

I second this

[@charles3200]

All except for Nazi Reina. I hate her.

[@hemmingsadventures]

It gets my vote. From a couple iñ the London gig audience. Best wishes for 2023

[@ExileTheKnightsOfMaltaNow]

I was going to have a superband with all my high school musician friends ..we had the talent and everything but then they decided they just wanted to watch Howard Stern and that's what the practice Jam sessions would always devolve into... narcissistic splitting

[@staffanolofsson8201]

The art of singing in harmony with another person has now come to its fulfillment. At least in Christmas times.

[@c3cubed]

I don't say this lightly; there's nothing more exhilarating than discovering folks with a true gift. There is genuine stardust here, and it's everywhere in spades.

[@mkwy8782]

Well, just follow Joshua around for endless, delightfully joyous music-what a scintillating talent.

[@jamesdillon6171]

Love how big she smiles as she crushes that vocal you can't fake joy. As always, these two are great!

[@Chris-ji4iu]

Absolutely - I did not expect this. Definitely subscribing.

[@brianbenny6790]

Scat singing is really a lost art. It's harder than it sounds, especially to do well. Ella Fitzgerald and Mel Torme come to mind as two of the greats. This was magical, thank you both.

[@marcfleischmann9911]

Manhattan Transfer, Lambert, Hendricks and Bavan(or Ross) …

[@JesseClaus]

Mark Murphy, Kurt Elling also. Check out Emily Braden, she’s amazing and young:)

[@georgestevens1502]

Just watched Chet Baker with Stan Getz doing "Just Friends," and Baker opened with a scat vocal that was great. It's on KZbin.

[@oscar_charlie]

"Tania Maria - Come With Me" comes to mind

[@patriotallen9717]

Smooth, breezy, classy. One of the best voices on the web!

[@eliecanetti]

It’s two voices. Both lovely.

[@Senor0Droolcup]

Allison Young really has the voice of an angel. This phrase is often overused but with this young lady it fits perfectly.

[@davidsalo8397]

Great guitar playing, too!

[@mark3863]

And the face of one too.

[@Senor0Droolcup]

@@mark3863 This is correct!

[@tracythorleifson]

Vince Guaraldi made the world a happier place, but he left us too soon. Thank you, Allison and Josh, for helping keep his music alive. Merry Christmas! 🎄😃🎄

[@theivory1]

I can't believe there are still people that would cover this. You two are a national treasure. I listen to this album once a day in the Month of December every year. People walk in my office and think I'm crazy. What do they know right?

[@davidsalo8397]

Do you have an extra desk in your office? 😸

[@johnmorris4646]

She has the purest instrument I have heard in a very long time.

[@Ingo-s1r]

SImply awesome in tone, intonation, musicality.... Gorgeous!

[@brianczuhai8909]

Reminds me of the hustle and bustle of being out at the stores during Christmas. Each ba-da-da is a person, car, or brake light. Yes! Allison was missed! With them, Christmas is early this year.

[@kctechie]

My late dad was really into scat, jazz, world music, etc. He'd met and become friends with several jazz greats that came through kansas city in the 1960's and 1970's. You do a great job of scatting and the extra tracks make fit a great sound.

[@DiederikAms]

WOW! In the best tradition of what was sooooo comforting when I was a kid. Dabadabada songs that just flow like a gentle water stream into your ear and lift up your spirits. Here in The Netherlands Thijs van Leer was a famous example. I now notice that I missed that dearly in the passed decades. So chuffed that you're bringing it back. And so utterly skillfully. Many thanks!

[@culkeenmusic]

Love the Christmas Tree Air Freshener on the Christmas Tree

[@davidverry9214]

These two are so much fun!

[@themightystoneface1]

This song just makes me smile, I feel so happy afterwards

[@americanparser]

Man, that's no small feat. It's exquisite! That you tackled Guaraldi on guitar and pulled off the timing along with those seemingly effortless vocals is something to be proud of. Thanks for the Christmas gift! I'll go grab it right now. Nice to hear from you both again.

[@Tommeadowcroft]

What do two very talented musicians do for fun? I think we have our answer. Thank you, Allison and Josh. Let’s all put something extra in their Patreon stockings.

[@Permian777]

I am very surprised only 107K views. Would think this would be a million views at least! So smooth.

[@noetrevino7055]

I can't watch this without a smile on my face.

[@elleandtoni]

This is such a vibe

[@M.Wood67]

Wonderful. Closed my eyes and saw Snoopy dancing across the ice. Great job!

[@user-gu1kx4qk8b]

Radio silence? Allison, You have done so much in 2022 with lots of jobs and original songs. This year is “Allison’s year”. Thank You so much for the wonderful music

[@davidwhite8627]

Wow. You guys harmonize so well -- really beautiful. What a treat! Thank you, both!

[@toddt6542]

Darn you KZbin for not giving the ability for a Nuclear 'Like' option. I didn't know just how much I needed this version and how much I beyond liked every single friggen note and execution. Simply blown away. Why is there no way to give this more than just a like. Thanks to everyone who touched this masterclass of music and capturing the entirety of the Christmas season.

[@Gorf_Denroh]

I bought Josh's signature, limited edition guitar. Now where can I buy Allison's voice? Just amazing!

[@GreenMountainVelvet]

Lucky you-the guitar was sold out by the time I tried to buy it!

[@pjgarret7653]

Brilliant harmonizing!! Scattin' Allison - Whoa! yeah.

[@brittely9931]

Dude and Dudette, that was spectacular!

[@JimYowellDesign]

Wow , this has to be rated among the world’s best. World’s best singer and world’s best guitarist!

[@fluroflash2803]

You make these runs sound so effortless. Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for posting

[@michaelw8429]

There is tremendous energy/synergy/creative chemistry between you two. Don't take this for granted. I was a part of a duo that had something special and it didnt last. Get while the gettin's good! Make an album, do a tour. Don't lose this chance. I could listen to you all day, and I am sure many others feel the same.

[@michaelwurl5894]

Love these two, individually or together. Everything they put out is gold

[@merontfeelta2557]

Fun and cozy, which is how Christmas should be. GooD)))))))

[@AiSt-magnetic]

What I like about their work: thorough preparation and presentation of the material to the listener. Music, voice, costumes and external surroundings - attracts me as a spectator. Thanks guys for your work! Peace and goodness in the new year in your home! 🎄☃

[@TheGuitologist]

This was absolutely magnificent.

[@Aritro77]

Beautiful. Spellbinding. The lyrics really spoke to me.

[@debmurray2734]

I still don't understand why I didn't sub within seconds of seeing this ... The first million times I saw it. Have watched this 10x since. Hands down The Best Christmas music of all time - you have done it great justice.

[@NorthgateDrive-jy7bw]

Beautiful! Groovy and jumpy!

[@nomanmcshmoo8640]

Ahh! So beautiful! Your are never too young for Vince Guaraldi & Co.!!!! What a GREAT JOB!!!!!

[@oldfrend]

I think vince guaraldi would've been pleased with this interpretation of his work. you capture the light-hearted energy of the original while adding a compelling breeziness with your breathy vocals and josh's falsetto.

[@roandcheetoh]

This has been one of my favorite holiday songs for 25 years. Thank you so much for covering it.⛸❄🥜🎄

[@NB-gu9rs]

This works so well with vocals, thank you so much! This has always been the Charlie Brown Christmas track I have the biggest weakness for.

[@DavidBennettPiano]

Great song choice and great arrangement as always 🎉❤

[@zomart4016]

As if I hadn't already fallen head over heels in love with the two of you, now you're just scatting thru my consciousness tweaking all my pleasure zones. I love you, Merry Christmas!

[@j_e_hill]

God that’s just beautiful. Pure. So human. Thanks.

[@michaelniederer2831]

You kids are great! Having way too much fun!

[@zaviahopethomas-woundedsou9848]

You two are my favorite duet!

[@denverdubois5835]

I have to think Vince himself would absolutely love this. You guys are brilliant.

[@roughcutguitars]

Your talent and skills are paralleled only by your sense of adventure. Never in a million years would I have thought to do this take on that heralded tune - and you absolutely crushed it.

[@johncheman6222]

You two always bring a smile to my face and warmth to my heart! Thank you!!!

[@TerryYelmene]

Perhaps... I think this may be my 'new favorite' Josh duet. This is fantastic!

[@hoblon]

Pure magic. Thank you!

[@hoisin75]

Scat is back baby. Merry Christmas

[@dannylee9463]

Love, love, love this!!! The music from Peanuts is a life long favorite. THANK YOU, Alley Cat!!

[@danielcarter491]

Love this~! This song has always been a favorite. Just brings back everything about childhood Christmas and you guys nailed it. Definitely one of my favorites from all of your collaborations. Turner & Young. That's the name I would go with. You guys have fans.

[@danielprout8987]

Bless you two, I can't stop smiling. You already know, that was brilliant.

[@raywood8187]

Awesome vocals on this! Close my eyes and listen and there I am, again a joyful 5 year old skating around on a big pond in 1965 when I fist saw this on CB Christmas ! This kind of ties in to the older version of me. But it's alright now :) I'm so hard to handle I'm sеlfish and I'm sad Now I've gone and lost the bеst baby That I ever had Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on ⛸⛸

[@franichevich]

WOW! How cute! Record this immediately and get it the the stations... It's like the perfect Christmas song. And I oughta know. Loved Allison's skat vocal break. Gee, Josh , you were perfect singing and playing simultaneously. Gee whizz! -Vince Vance, Composer

[@bluetx54]

totally in the spirit of Vince Guaraldi . I am sure Lee Mendelsohn and Vince would love this bright fun and smooth version.. congratulations on a fine cover......Josh, you and Allison make a great duo.....all of your covers are imaginative and fresh.

[@BangBang-hk4rg]

I absolutely LOVE this rendition

[@angelarasmussen1800]

Christmas hat is a nice touch... and plaids,,, so retro and fresh!

[@RADThird1]

Simply superb! Great ideas and execution but how can we not take that for granted from these two?

[@harriscl100]

This was truly amazing and a lost art! There are many artists today that could only dream of doing what Allison and Josh just accomplished. It takes a true connection to make this type of art come alive. Bravo

[@ArturoRodz]

I totally love this! The guitar arrangement, the vocals, the comfort vibes, everything it's just perfect!

[@clementjohnson2666]

My dear , you are doing an excellent job of jazz scatting . For that matter the two of you did an excellent rendition of V . G . SKATING . I TAKE MY HAT OFF TO THE BOTH OF YOU 😇 .

[@easycretor]

Wonderful Christmasy and cheery ! I watched it twice and I may watch two or three more times.

[@StudyCom]

Perfection. Remember the Swingle Singers?

[@roytee3127]

"Sleepers Wake" was a revelation - put Bach in a whole new light.

[@SnoopysVet]

Was so nice. I listened twice

[@MewWolf5]

One of my favourite holiday tunes. Never heard a vocal version before!

[@mandoguy8789]

Brilliant! Thank you for that wonderful breath of fresh air. Keep the music coming.

[@martyschrader]

Hard to believe such fun could be had by such professionals. You kids keep this up; us Old Farts will continue to enjoy.

[@samiam4544]

You are both so amazing. Keep making us smile please.

[@1105renrut]

The best way for me to describe this is…chill….it is so chill. I’m not a bit surprised that either Allison or Josh could perform this so perfectly, I’m just very happy that they did. I will never watch Charlie Brown Christmas again without the two of you in my happy head! Merry Christmas to both of you & Kelly & Marie too!

[@beckywatts502]

Great! Fabulous. I can see Charlie Brown skating now.

[@kelwenator]

This is fantastic. I was already a fan, but I'm so glad you guys are around and putting out new material. Thank you!

[@brettm3851]

I've always been a little bit of an amatuer musian. Probably why I enjoy these collabs so much. It's like finding Indie performances from exceptionally talented kids that just love music for music's sake. Just a joy to listen to. Love the homage to Vince Guaraldi Trio holiday album here too. Underrated! Thanks Josh and Allison for another great performance!

[@mus1970]

Wonderful performance, well done!

[@jasoncrane]

Well this is the best thing I've seen online today.

[@CharlesCornettFL]

Simply amazing. Who would think that a song without lyrics (sort of) would present one of the most complex, intricate, smooth, and simply delightful vocal stylings I've ever heard. And then some dude sings it AND plays an ass-buster guitar part. I think Josh should go ahead and dye his hair red and get a curly perm. That way there would be at least one thing on stage that was superficial and contrived. Truly wonderful.

[@MissLauraSquared]

Always love seeing the two of you do duets together! Thank you for this beautiful rendition of this song. 🥰

[@koala2052]

quite outstanding, both voices and guitar playing...

[@farwestadventures8242]

Allison, omg!!! You are classic Singer. Keep up the amazing work. You will get someone attention out there and get a recording label.

[@csilt]

Skating is my favorite song off of that album. Probably like a lot of folks I've been on a Vince Guaraldi kick lately. Just printed a cool photo of his trio playing in a park in San Francisco 8/7/66 to put above my piano.

[@trevd64]

Wow that was simply wonderful fresh and amazing!

[@somentity]

The duo is back! 😄

[@davidcooke8005]

That part where she sang 'do do do de de de' really spoke to me. No, seriously, Vince and his trio are smiling down, tapping their toes for this one. Very nice!

[@tomdale1313]

Great facial expressions Allison, always bringing joy to your vocals...tanks for sharing

[@danielmuggli5249]

Hell yeah. This is a good Christmas

[@redbirdjazzz]

You guys are, as always, perfect together!

[@pjalexandra]

love the scat and how you found creative ways to voice the piano. super fun on a Wednesday morning, thanks.

[@heythere9371]

I've watched like 20 renditions of this song on guitar and piano and this is top tier

[@diggerthegroundhog8799]

Really cool you way out cats. I can dig this. Brings back memories on my days in Haight Ashbury hanging with Steve Miller and a few other cool cats.

[@jmargerum1]

I love the range of music you two explore when you perform together. Your voices and musical sense mesh well, more please!

[@ignignokt4u2]

One measure in and I was already loving this.

[@Ian_Newton]

These lyrics are so meaningful, especially at this time of year. They speak so much about joy and tenderness, sadness and loss. Beautiful stuff guys.

[@MtlCstr]

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

[@derek-vanguardaudiolabs9779]

Outstanding as always; you make our mic sound like we've always imagined it could. Thank you!

[@michaeltoubro5367]

Sweet music, lyrics pretty good too

[@baronsnobolla6393]

Have Covid for Christmas. After hearing/seeing this video, I am already feeling better, Spectacular!!!😊
