Vince Guaraldi Trio – A Charlie Brown Christmas (Soundtrack / O.S.T.)

2022 Reissue - Gold Foil Edition.

Originally broadcast in 1965, A Charlie Brown Christmas is hands down one of the most beloved specials in TV history. Commissioned by Peanuts creator Charles M. Schulz, Vince Guaraldi and his trio rounded out by Monty Budwig (bass) and Colin Bailey (drums), composed and performed the timeless contemporary jazz score which wonderfully reflects both the spirit of the legendary Peanuts characters and the Christmas season. A Grammy Hall of Fame inductee in 2007, A Charlie Brown Christmas was inducted into the Library of Congress in May of 2012 with the accompanying statement, "A Charlie Brown Christmas introduced jazz to millions of listeners," and 45 plus years on it's still doing just that.
