Few albums have rooted themselves deeper into American culture than A Charlie Brown Christmas. Vince Guaraldi's charming, swinging score for the 1965 classic CBS TV animated special brought jazz into millions of homes, wrapped in tinsel, nostalgia, and a chorus of "Christmastime is Here."

Guaraldi, with his melodic sense and West Coast cool, translated the Peanuts gang's whimsy and melancholy into pure musical gold. Whether it's the airy piano riff of "Skating," the finger-snapping joy of "Linus and Lucy," or the tender brushwork on "Greensleeves," this album did what few thought possible: it turned bebop into bedtime music and made jazz a holiday tradition.

And now, it's back-better than ever-as a UHQR (Ultra High Quality Record) reissue from Analogue Productions. Pressed at Quality Record Pressings and mastered with care by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab directly from the original analog tapes. These are experts who treat vinyl like sacred text, and this edition delivers Guaraldi's piano trio with breathtaking clarity and warmth. Lastly, reissues in this series are housed in archival quality Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jackets with a scuff-resistant finish, for a truly premium product.

It's not just a reissue; it's like hearing A Charlie Brown Christmas for the first time — only this time, it's in hi-fi heaven. Perfect for audiophiles, jazz fans, and anyone who tears up when Charlie Brown saves Christmas.

An amazing Christmas gift posted on 12/09/2025 5 Stars Reviewer: Joel For those of us who have been watching “A Charlie Brown Christmas” and enjoying it’s beautiful music since 1965, this new UHQR is an amazing Christmas gift. I’ve listened to this music on various media, including the excellent AP 2014 vinyl pressing, hundreds of times over the last 60 years. The beautiful gift of music on this record is so much more relaxing and organically real that it brings me much more emotional connection to this timeless music. Thank you to all evolved in creating this beautiful gift of Christmas music and memories.
