Mosaic Records discography

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is the discography of Mosaic Records[1] the American jazz record company and label established in 1982 by Michael Cuscuna and Charlie Lourie.[2][3] Over three decades the jazz press and general publications have recognized Mosaic, with The New York Times naming it "the most distinctive reissue label in jazz",[4] All About Jazz calling the company "arguably the premiere reissue label in jazz",[5] and Esquire suggesting it is "America's most obsessive jazz label".[6]

This discography includes Limited Edition Box Sets (of various numbers of LPs or CDs), Vinyl Set Series (of various numbers of LPs), Selects (3 CDs) and Singles (one CD). The majority of the company's music leases over its 30+ years of operating are now expired, with the releases becoming sought after, expensive collectors' items.
