 The album was released in December 1965 in the United States by Fantasy Records.

 Guaraldi was contacted by television producer Lee Mendelson several years prior to compose music for a documentary on the comic strip "Peanuts" and its creator, Charles M. Schulz.
 Although the special went unaired, these selections were released in 1964 as "Jazz Impressions of "A Boy Named Charlie Brown"".
 Coca-Cola commissioned a Christmas special based on "Peanuts" in 1965 and Guaraldi returned to score the special. Christmas Time Is Here
"Christmas Time Is Here" is a popular Christmas song written by Lee Mendelson and Vince Guaraldi for the 1965 TV special "A Charlie Brown Christmas", one of the first animated Christmas specials produced for network TV in the United States.
 Because the song became a hit, two versions were included on the album "A Charlie Brown Christmas": an instrumental version by the Vince Guaraldi Trio and a vocal version by children from St. Paul's Episcopal Church in San Rafael, California. Oh Good Grief!
Oh, Good Grief is an album by Vince Guaraldi released by Warner Bros., in 1968.
 This album displays a re-interpretation of Charles M. Schulz's "Peanuts" classics as Guaraldi experimented with electric keyboard and electric harpsichord in preparation of the release of his next album, The Eclectic Vince Guaraldi.
 The performers on this recording were pianist Vince Guaraldi, guitarist Eddie Duran, drummer Carl Burnett, and bassist Stanley Gilbert.
 The electric harpsichord may be harsh to some listeners unaccustomed to it, but this album shows lively new versions of the classic tunes of Peanuts. Linus and Lucy
"Linus and Lucy" is a popular jazz piano composition written by Vince Guaraldi, appearing in many of the "Peanuts" animated television specials. Named for the fictional siblings Linus and Lucy van Pelt, it was released in 1964 on the Vince Guaraldi Trio's album "Jazz Impressions of a Boy Named Charlie Brown". "
A Charlie Brown Christmas" introduced the song to a television audience of millions of children beginning in 1965.
 Since that special, the piece has introduced most of the "Peanuts" TV cartoons, with the exceptions of the specials and other TV programs produced between 1979 and 1992.
 It is one of the most recognizable pieces by Vince Guaraldi, and has gained status as the "de facto" theme song of the "Peanuts" franchise. Vince Guaraldi, Bola Sete and Friends
