So apparently they found the original tapes for 'It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!' and are releasing it in finally isolated form at the end of August. (I apologize if this had been mentioned before here).



I was able to peek at the liner notes as they flipped by in the promo video and they do indeed say that this is the actual, isolated music, and specifically state that no sound effects are in this release.

I'm excited, as I'm pretty sure this is going to be nothing like the horrible bait and switch we a few years back. (The identical packaging art did throw me for a loop, though)

And they even have a bunch of alternate versions as well. I'm gonna wait and see if all is well with this release before I order, but I think it may be for real.

I'll definitely buy this. I was very much disappointed by the previous incarnation, and now I can sell it on eBay.

Yeah, that old release was like a slap in the face. I felt like Sally at the end of 'The Great Pumpkin': "You owe me restitution!" But it seems like this could be the release we've all been waiting for.

I already pre-ordered this CD.

I also put in a suggestion to Craft Recordings for a possible CHARLIE BROWN THANKSGIVING CD. Anyone else interested in this CD should do the same, as they might have the reel tapes for this music as well: www.craftrecordings.com

Pretty embarrassing that the tapes were right there in a box labeled "Big Pumpkin Charlie Brown." Gee, wonder what could be in there? Nah, let's not look in there for 50 years!

I would love to see the score for Race for Your Life Charlie Brown released, it is one of my holy grails that I am not sure will ever see the light of day.

You'd think they'd check EVERY SINGLE BOX of tapes, to make sure the content inside are what it's labled and also don't contain other materials not on the label, for cataloging and location purposes alone.

Man, sometime I wish I loved near some of these places and could just donate some free time every week to looking around boxes and identifying materials.

Thanks! Unfortunately though the CD does not appear to be packaged in a standard CD jewel case. Is the case cardboard?

Yes - same packaging as the previous release.

To save face and humiliating embarrassment, I would have claimed until my dying day that they were found in a box that was labeled "Definitely MOST ASSUREDLY Nothing To Do Whatsoever With 'Big Pumpkin Charlie Brown' Can Or Will Ever Be Found Inside This Box"... :^\

Maybe all the previous boxes they checked had rocks in them.

Oh Good Grief!

https://craftrecordings.com/blogs/news/definitive-super-deluxe-edition-of-charlie-brown-christmas

Craft Recordings proudly announces a definitive, bonus-filled edition of Vince Guaraldi’s timeless score from the beloved, 1965 animated PEANUTS® special, A Charlie Brown Christmas, from Charles Schulz and Lee Mendelson and Bill Melendez. While the album has remained a holiday staple for nearly 60 years (not to mention the best-selling jazz album of all time, alongside Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue, after earning 5x platinum certification by the RIAA in May), this latest edition showcases Guaraldi’s creative process like never before, thanks to hours of newly unearthed session tapes from Fantasy Records’ vaults. Now, fans can experience cues like “Christmas Time Is Here,” “O Tannenbaum,” and “Skating” as they take shape in the studio through dozens of previously unreleased alternate tracks.

In addition, the original 11-track album has been upgraded with a new stereo mix from the original two- and three-track sources by the GRAMMY® Award-winning engineer, Paul Blakemore. Both the new mix and original mix can be found along with hours of unreleased material on the Super Deluxe Edition (available as a 4-CD/1-Blu-ray Audio collection box set or as an 80-track digital release). The new stereo mix will also be available alongside a selection of thirteen studio outtakes on a Deluxe Edition 2-LP or CD. All formats featuring the new stereo mix will release on October 14th.

When I order this and A Charlie Brown Christmas early last evening, it said there were only 2 preorders left of the Great Pumpkin CD.
