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 analogue 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.

Analogue Productions

Analogue Productions It was in 1992 that Acoustic Sounds owner Chad Kassem reissued his first Analogue Productions title, Virgil Thompson's The Plow That Broke The Plains, originally on Vanguard. Analogue Productions began as a vehicle for Kassem to license his favorite all-time recordings and reissue them as remastered and as a superior version to the original release. Since its inception AP has reissued hundreds of titles, ranging from classical to folk, pop, rock, blues and jazz. Included in the many highlights of Analogue Productions' history are the Fantasy 45 Jazz Reissues, the Blue Note Reissues, and premium box sets of the music of such legendary acts as The Doors, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Nat "King" Cole and Norah Jones. True to its name, Analogue Productions works with the original analogue master tapes - more than any other reissue label! The result is superior sound - richer, warmer and more lifelike, than digital.
