CLASSIC! btw Im uploading nostalgic and classic Christmas songs to my channel! Come check it out! Right now I have the WHOLE album to Charlie Brown Christmas. Such great songs. Please help me out by subscribing thanks! Sorry if you think this is spam, I just want more people to listen to this great music! :)
i have the cassette tape of this..i've never gotten around to finding a CD or digital copy, but something about the static-fuzz of the cassette makes this sound so much more.....nostalgic and old. like when christmas used to be more than just JCpenny and MACY commercials and "every kiss begins with Kay" commercials..this stuff is what christmas is really about. the music that brings us to happiness. thank you vince Guaraldi
There's just something about jazz--the free-spiritedness, the improvisational qualities, the fundamentalist aspects of the genre--that, when combined with traditional or modern Christmas tunes, makes for such instant musical genius.
If anyone's interested in a listen, my favourite jazz christmas albums are (not the "smooth-jazz" rubbish that we hear in department stores) "An Oscar Peterson Christmas" and the Ramsey Lewis Trio's "Sound of Christmas." And this one of course.
This is not the same version that is on the disc for the soundtrack. (on the soundtrack he doesn't arpeggiate the turnaround between verses.) I wonder what this one was recorded for...I like this one even better, which is saying something.
Finally bought the CD after all these years. I'm already excited about Christmas - I don't care if it's still early November. This has got to be one of the happiest tunes in the whole world!

Jazz is the best Christmas genre.

@minamu8 There are some great classical tracks, but there is a beauty of Christmas Jazz that other genres can't touch.
