The Definitive Vince Guaraldi is Fantasy/Concord Records compilation album of songs by American jazz pianist/composer Vince Guaraldi released on November 3, 2009. It contains 31 tracks over two CDs, highlighting Guaraldi's Peanuts work as well his collaborations with guitarist Bola Sete.

The album was released on 180-gram vinyl on November 20, 2015 as a 4-LP box set.[5][6]

As the release was label-specific containing material Guaraldi recorded for Fantasy Records, it excludes tracks from Guaraldi's three Warner Bros.-Seven Arts releases (Oh Good Grief!, The Eclectic Vince Guaraldi, Alma-Ville) as well as Vince Guaraldi with the San Francisco Boys Chorus (1967) released on Guaraldi's own D&D record label. Guaraldi's three Warner Bros. albums were released separately by Omnivore Recordings as part of the 2-disc set The Complete Warner Bros.–Seven Arts Recordings in July 2018.[7]
