The Royal Guardsmen formed in Ocala, Florida in 1966. What started as a little fooling around in studio down time ("Snoopy Vs. The Red Baron") became the unexpected worldwide hit of 1966. What followed was largely predictable. The band went back to the studio to record another "Snoopy" song. The result was "Return Of The Red Baron" which made it to number 15 in the U.S. and number 37 in the UK. The band's second LP, which featured more of a reliance on group originals, rose to number 44 on the U.S. album chart.By the end of '67, the Royal Guardsmen had compiled enough Snoopy songs to fill almost one side of another album; "Snoopy's Christmas" topped the seasonal charts and the album climbed to number 46 in the U.S. This CD compiles all the Snoopy material and more.
