Vincent Anthony Guaraldi was an American jazz pianist best known for composing music for animated television adaptations of the Peanuts comic strip. His compositions for this series included their signature melody "Linus and Lucy" and the holiday standard "Christmas Time Is Here".

Celebrate the 40th Anniversary of A Charlie Brown Christmas with David Benoit’s reprisal of the original Christmas classic. We are presenting two unique mixes in High Definition Surround Sound: The "Orchestral" mix is engineered to recreate the experience of being in a Concert Hall. The mix is lush and reverberating. It resembles the natural acoustics of a beautiful theater with a large, expansive sound. The "In The Room" mix is more intimate allowing you "inside" the music. You hear the instruments all around you. "When I heard the "In The Room" Monster mix," Says Benoit, "I felt like I was right there with the band, right at the rehearsal, like we were just rehearsing in our living room. There’s the drummer and bass player here, the piano right in the middle, and I’m just part of this and it was just like it was happening in real time." This SuperDisc also includes the original stereo recording for your CD player.

Long before his fame as the man behind the music for the Charlie Brown television specials, Vince Guaraldi was celebrated in jazz circles as an inventive, unfailingly swinging pianist. He worked with Cal Tjader, Woody Herman, the Chubby Jackson-Bill Harris band and the Lighthouse All-Stars. Then as the leader of his own trio, he hit the charts with Jazz Impressions of Black Orpheus featuring bossa nova standards from the 1959 movie Black Orpheus. The album also included "Cast Your Fate to the Wind," a Guaraldi original that itself became a standard. Guaraldi's musicianship and the infectious qualities of his approach are on full display in this generous survey of his work.

本专辑之所以被认为是一张重要的作品，不但由於它是爵士乐大师文斯‧葛拉第(Vince Guaraldi)首次为史奴比卡通跨刀创作的原声带，更因为它在六○年代，引领了上百万的小朋友(及它们的父母)第一次接触了爵士音乐。专辑中的音乐，由於广受喜爱，也成了查理布朗传奇的一部份。大师文斯‧葛拉第最为人讚佩的，除了为世人创作出如此才华洋溢、愉快摇摆的动人旋律之外，他全心投入、不轻忽卡通配乐的精神，更令人敬佩。事实上，他似乎比以往更兴味盎然地投入这项创作，展现出更多的创意与赤子之心。当葛拉第的三重奏完成了这些卡通配乐时，确实带给许多人小小的惊艳！想不到一个简单的爵士乐三重奏: 钢琴(葛拉第Guaraldi)、贝斯(Monty Budwig蒙堤‧巴德威)、小鼓(柯林‧贝里)，能够将卡通的意象以及主人翁的情绪詮释的如此传神，彷彿这些人物又活生生的回到我们眼前。许多史奴比迷熟悉的曲子，在卡通中常以不同的演奏方式出现。而原曲都来自本专辑。包括源自Bossa Nova风格的“Linus And Lucy”，以及“Baseball Theme”、”Oh,Good Grief”等。CD版本还比黑胶唱片多收录了一首”Fly Me To The Moon”。
