The Story

Premiere release of the Vince Guaraldi scores for the classic Peanuts specials: "It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown" and "Charlie Brown's All Stars!"

Premiere of the double soundtrack, single 12', BioVinyl LP, celebrating the 50th anniversary of 'It's Arbor Day Charlie Brown' and the 60th Anniversary of 'Charlie Brown's All Stars.' This gatefold edition is a 10-yr bookend of Vince Guaraldi scores of beloved Peanuts® specials.

'All Stars,' the 2nd Peanuts primetime special following 'A Charlie Brown Christmas' aired 6-8-1966. Performed by the Vince Guaraldi Sextet - Guaraldi (piano), Puzzy Firth (bass), Eddie Duran (guitar), John Coppola and Frank Snow (trumpet) and Lee Charlton (drums).

'Arbor Day' was the 15th and final Peanuts special Guaraldi composed and performed. Guaraldi passed away on February 6, 1976, the day he recorded this wonderful music, at the age of 47. The Trio features Seward McCain (bass), and Jim Zimmerman (drums), who were with Vince when he passed away in Menlo Park CA. The special aired several weeks later on CBS 3-16-1976.

Both specials were written by Charles Schulz, and produced by Bill Melendez and Lee Mendelson. 'Arbor day' was directed by Phil Roman and Melendez and 'All Stars' was directed by Melendez.

Available for the first time ever on Vinyl, CD and digital. The record was mixed and mastered for audiophiles, jazz lovers, and Peanuts fans everywhere. Clark Germain mixed 'Arbor Day' at WonderWorld Studio, Vinson Hudson restored and mastered the record including 'All Stars' and Sean & Jason Mendelson produced the record. The gatefold edition includes a 6-page insert with art from the special, liner notes by Sean & Jason Mendelson, and Derrick Bang (author of 'Vince Guaraldi at the Piano').

The record is made out of BioVinyl to reduce carbon footprint, with sustainably forested paper and in a compostable PLA bag. In 2026, for every copy of this record sold, LMFP will contribute $1.00 to the Arbor Day Foundation, with a minimum annual donation of $12,000 leading to the planting of a tree in a forest of need. Purchases of the album will not be tax deductible.
