About this deal

With a new spin adding a receiver and blue tooth speakers for a bit more amplified sound though the house. The album was inducted into the GRAMMY® Hall of Fame in 2007 and continues to be a perennial favorite, thanks to annual airings of the Christmas TV special. Thus, the new vinyl lacquers were cut from that digital source (and more on that point in a moment). Overall, I am happy to finally have this nice new 180g vinyl version of “A Charlie Brown Christmas” to play for my family and friends this year during the holidays.

Disc one features the new stereo mix of the album, plus the original remastered 1965 mix, while disc two through four offer more than 50 never-before-heard outtakes from five recording sessions, as Guaraldi and his bandmates craft cues like “Christmas Is Coming” and “Skating. The perfect Christmas album, have loved this album since i was a small boy ( i'm 67 now) the CD version has been mastered beautifully by Fantasy records.

In a moment you are confronted with a hip jazz riff and off you go again thinking about Charlie Brown and his pals. To clarify all that, I reached out directly to Craft Recordings, who confirmed the new mix was indeed made from the original tapes, which were transferred to hi-res digital at 24-bit/192kHz.

A great pressing, although surface noise is a bit frequent (I can only assume this is due to the lo-fi production of the album), although spindle holes are a bit too small, the color of the record isn't too appealing (but for anyone who prefers any color over an average black it's totally fine), and I feel like the packaging could be a bit better. After all these years of hearing just the original takes, it is fantastic to follow the journey on what the musicians went through to nail down those exemplary performances we’ve all come to know and love.

Shroeder's affinity for Beethoven gives the album a natural gravitation towards classical and there is a version of Für Elise on Side B. Features some of the most iconic tracks in pop culture, including the instantly recognizable "Linus and Lucy" and the festive "Christmas Time Is Here. Disc five delivers the new stereo mix in hi-resolution audio, as well as Dolby Atmos® on Blu-ray audio.

In terms of the digital transfer used for it, Paul McGowan of PS Audio just posted a very interesting video on the subject of where, exactly, the inherent warmth of vinyl comes from.

Mind you, I mean no offense to the good folks at Craft Recordings, who indeed have every right to offer these fun, non-audiophile variants for Peanuts collectors and fans around the world — have at it, I say! However, Vince Guaraldi will always be known as the man who introduced generations of children to the joys of jazz – having scored years’ worth of PEANUTS specials - certainly, the instantly recognizable “ Linus and Lucy” remains his most famous track.
