First ever release of the complete Vince Guaraldi soundtrack album for "You're Not Elected, Charlie Brown" (1972). The 8th primetime Peanuts® special premiered on October 29, 1972 and has continued to air every year or stream for over five decades. Swinging Dixieland jazz, beautiful underscoring, and Guaraldi singing for the first time on a Peanuts® special ("Joe Cool"), this album has it all plus nine never-before-heard bonus or alternate tracks. This album includes the complete score to the animated special written and created by Charles Schulz, directed by Bill Melendez and produced by Melendez and Lee Mendelson. The bonus tracks have never been heard since their recording in San Francisco in 1972. Re-discovered, and remastered for audiophiles, Peanuts® fans, and patriotic voters everywhere. The album opens with the beautiful "Incumbent Waltz" and contains the complete track of "Joe Cool" (the full performance beyond just what is heard on the Special) featuring Guaraldi singing for the first time on a Peanuts® special.

Released 9/6/24 through LMFP. Available here on Woodstock Yellow vinyl.
