Pablo Records
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pablo Records was a record label founded by Norman Granz in 1973, some ten years after he had sold his jazz labels (including the world-famous Verve Records) to MGM Records.
Pablo initially featured recordings by acts that he managed: Ella Fitzgerald, Oscar Peterson and Joe Pass. Later recordings by Count Basie, John Coltrane, Dizzy Gillespie and Sarah Vaughan were added. Milt Jackson recorded for Pablo from the mid-70s to the mid-80s.
In 1987 the label was acquired by Fantasy Records, who continued to release previously-unissued recordings using the Pablo name.
