# Pacific Jazz Records

Pacific Jazz Records est un label discographique américain basé à Los Angeles, connu pour ses productions de Jazz West Coast.

## Historique

Pacific Jazz Records est fondé en 1952 par Richard Bock (1927–1988) et le percussionniste Roy Harte.

Parmi les musiciens qui enregistrent pour le label, on trouve Chet Baker, Gerry Mulligan, Paul Desmond, Joe Pass ou encore Gerald Wilson.

Le label est racheté en 1957 par Liberty Records, qui possédait déjà un label de world music, World Pacific Records, et continua l'exploitation des deux labels pendant une décennie environ.

Son créateur Richard Bock crée ensuite le label World Pacific en collaboration avec Ravi Shankar, et produit des documentaires sur l'Inde via sa boîte de production Aura Productions. Il finit sa carrière en produisant des albums pour Fantasy Records.
