Black & Blue Records is a French record label specializing in swing jazz and blues.

Black & Blue was founded in 1968, and in its early years concentrated on reissuing jazz that had been previously released on American labels.[1] The label recorded Blues and Jazz musicians both in America and France and began issuing much new material both in the studio and live on stage. Black & Blue continued their activity well into the CD era. Many of their recordings have been re-released in recent years on the American Evidence Records label.
