50th Anniversary red vinyl LP edition of Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown.

Premiere release of the complete Vince Guaraldi score for the classic Peanuts holiday animated special celebrating its 50th Anniversary. Includes the complete 22 track score plus 8 never-before-heard bonus tracks. 

The holiday special was written and created by Charles Schulz, directed by Phil Roman and produced by Bill Melendez and Lee Mendelson. The album is mixed and mastered for audiophiles, jazz lovers, and Peanuts® fans everywhere from the original 2' session tapes to a 192kHz/24bit master.

The record Includes Guaraldi hits like the sweet centerpiece melody, 'Heartburn Waltz' and its diverse reprises. Other highlights include 'Paw Pet Overture,' 'Jennie L.' and 'There's Been A Change.' Some songs have equally stunning alternate takes that have never been heard. Guaraldi effectively layered his Fender Rhodes and acoustic piano to create a sublime, heartfelt soundtrack throughout and, perhaps, the most unique version of everyone's favorite 'Linus and Lucy.'

Beyond the composer's playing, the trio is made up of Seward McCain on electric bass (at Guaraldi's request), and Vince Lateano on drums.

This album is a Valentine's treat - for any day of the year where your heart reaches out for love. The album was mixed by Terry Carleton, restored and mastered by Vinson Hudson, and produced by Sean Mendelson and Jason Mendelson. The vinyl includes a 4-page insert with art from the special and liner notes that give a track-by-track analysis by producer Sean Mendelson and notes by producer Jason Mendelson and Derrick Bang (author of 'Vince Guaraldi at the Piano'). The vinyl has additional photographs and images from historical documents.
