Ooooh, is that the one where Snoopy and the Red Baron put aside their differences for a Christmas toast? I LOOOOOVE that one, particularly when the Red Baron says, with his heavy accent of unknown origin, "Merry Christmas, my friend!"
I had that album (yes, album) when I was a kid. It was totally unlicensed and Schulz had no clue they were doing it -- but he didn't order a cease and desist. Thankfully. I have tried to get it online, but only found a couple of the songs. iTunes has the Christmas one, but it is under "Various Artists" but the best I can tell, it is the Royal Guardsman.
On a similar note, my favorite Christmas album is the soundtrack to "A Charlie Brown Christmas" by Vince Guaraldi. If you like jazz, the Peanuts gang, and childhood memories, you can't go wrong!

The radio stations never play that one enough.

I love that song!! I first heard it at the tender age of 10. When I was a teen, my sis found the album.
About five years ago, i found me a copy of it
I had the 45. No idea where it is now.
