Pacific Jazz Records was a Los Angeles-based record label best known for releasing cool jazz or West coast jazz. It was founded by producer Richard Bock (1927–1988) and drummer Roy S. Harte in 1952. Harte, in 1954, also co-founded Nocturne Records. Some of the musicians that recorded for Pacific Jazz included Chet Baker, Gerry Mulligan, Paul Desmond, the Jazz Crusaders, Joe Pass and Gerald Wilson. In 1957, Pacific Jazz Records changed its name to World Pacific Records to expand into a full-line label, with the Pacific Jazz label retained for jazz releases.〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8t7iNIleOVk〕 Richard Bock and World Pacific were instrumental in introducing Indian traditional music to the west via Ravi Shankar, who also recorded for World Pacific. The label was purchased by Liberty Records in 1965. World Pacific's only major hit was "Elusive Butterfly" by Bob Lind in 1966. Liberty continued both labels for a few years and also issued some releases on a combined World Pacific Jazz label. By the early 1970s, Liberty and its associated labels were owned by United Artists Records, which stopped issuing new material on the Liberty imprints. By the end of the 1970s, EMI had acquired United Artists Records and so became the owner of the ex-Liberty masters. Pacific Jazz Records now exists in name only via reissues of its material. The label's jazz catalog is now controlled by Blue Note Records, part of the Universal Music Group. ==Partial discography== ;Ten inch series *1 - Gerry Mulligan - ''Gerry Mulligan Quartet'' *2 - Gerry Mulligan - ''Gerry Mulligan Quartet/Gerry Mulligan Quartet with Lee Konitz'' *3 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker Quartet'' *4 - Harry Edison - ''Sweets at the Haig'' *5 - Gerry Mulligan - ''Gerry Mulligan Quartet'' *6 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker Quartet featuring Russ Freeman'' *7 - Laurindo Almeida - ''Laurindo Almeida Quartet Featuring Bud Shank'' *8 - Russ Freeman - ''Russ Freeman Trio'' *9 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker Ensemble'' *10 - Gerry Mulligan - ''Lee Konitz and the Gerry Mulligan Quartet'' *11 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker Sings'' *12 - Bob Gordon - ''Meet Mr. Gordon'' *13 - Laurindo Almeida - ''Laurindo Almeida Quartet Featuring Bud Shank, Volume 2'' *14 - Bud Shank - ''Bud Shank and Three Trombones'' *15 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker Sextet'' *16 - Bob Brookmeyer - ''Bob Brookmeyer Quartet'' *17 - Chico Hamilton - ''Chico Hamilton Trio'' *18 - Al Haig - ''Al Haig Trio'' () *19 - Clifford Brown - ''The Clifford Brown Ensemble Featuring Zoot Sims'' *20 - Bud Shank - ''Bud Shank and Bob Brookmeyer'' ;Twelve inch series *1201 - Gerry Mulligan - ''California Concerts'' *1202 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker Sings and Plays'' - with Bud Shank, Russ Freeman and Strings *1203 - Chet Baker - ''Jazz at Ann Arbor'' *1204 - Laurdindo Almeida - ''Laurindo Almeia Quartet Featuring Bud Shank'' (of 7 and 13 ) *1205 - Bud Shank and Shorty Rogers - ''Bud Shank and Shorty Rogers'' *1206 - Chet Baker - ''The Trumpet Artistry of Chet Baker'' *1207 - Gerry Mulligan - ''The Original Gerry Mulligan Quartet'' *1208 - Jack Montrose - ''Jack Montrose Sextet'' *1209 - Chico Hamilton - ''Chico Hamilton Quintet featuring Buddy Collette'' *1210 - Gerry Mulligan - ''Paris Concert'' *1211 - Cy Touff - ''His Octet and Quintet'' *1212 - Russ Freeman and Richard Twardzik - ''Trio'' *1213 - Bud Shank - ''Strings and Trombones'' (of 14 and 20 ) *1214 - Various - ''Arranged by Montrose'' *1215 - Bud Shank - ''The Bud Shank Quartet'' *1216 - Chico Hamilton - ''Chico Hamilton Quintet in Hi Fi'' *1217 - John Lewis - ''Grand Encounter'' *1218 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker in Europe'' *1219 - Bud Shank - ''Jazz at Cal-Tech'' *1220 - Chico Hamilton - ''Chico Hamilton Trio'' (of 17 with additional tracks ) *1221 - Bill Perkins - ''The Bill Perkins Octet On Stage'' *1222 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker Sings'' (of 11 with additional tracks ) *1223 - Hoagy Carmichael - ''Hoagy Sings Carmichael'' *1224 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker & Crew'' *1225 - Chico Hamilton - ''Chico Hamilton Quintet'' *1226 - Bud Shank and Bob Cooper - ''Flute 'n' Oboe'' *1227 - Jim Hall - ''Jazz Guitar'' *1228 - Gerry Mulligan - ''At Storyville'' *1229 - Chet Baker - ''Chet Baker Big Band'' *1230 - Bud Shank - ''Bud Shank Quartet Featuring Claude Williamson'' *1231 - Fred Katz - ''Zen: The Music of Fred Katz'' with Paul Horn and the Chico Hamilton Quartet *1232 - Chet Baker - ''Quartet: Russ Freeman/Chet Baker'' ''At this point label name changes to "World Pacific"'' *1233 - Bob Brookmeyer - ''Traditionalism Revisited'' *1234 - Chet Baker & Art Pepper - ''Playboys'' *1235 - Jack Lidström ''Look, Dad!
