Celebrating the "Peanuts" music of Vince Guaraldi with Sean and Jason Mendelson.

Record Store Day 2026 Preview pt. 2.

It's Record Store Day, Charlie Brown!

On this episode we'll continue to preview titles from the RSD 2026 List, as we welcome Jason and Sean Mendelson from Lee Mendelson Film Productions, to talk about their father's enduring animation series of Charlie Brown TV Specials based on characters in the Peanuts universe created by Charles M. Schulz. This year, LMFP will partner with RSD to release 5000 copies of the double LP pressing of two of Jazz legend Vince Guaraldi's Peanuts soundtracks: It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown / Charlie Brown's All Stars! The two brothers talk about Guaraldi, Schulz, their father, and how LMFP is continuing to pursue eco-friendly green initiatives on all of their releases on "bio-attributed vinyl" to reduce carbon footprint, with sustainably forested paper and in a PVC gatefold jacket and a recycled bag. In 2026, for every copy sold, LMFP will contribute $1.00 to the Arbor Day Foundation, with a minimum annual donation of $12,000 leading to the planting of one tree in a forest of need.
