Pablo Records

Pablo Records was a jazz record company and label founded by Norman Granz in 1973, roughly a decade after he had sold his labels (including Verve Records) to MGM Records.

Pablo initially featured recordings by acts that Granz managed: Ella Fitzgerald, Oscar Peterson, and Joe Pass. Later, the label issued recordings by Count Basie, John Coltrane, Dizzy Gillespie, Sarah Vaughan, Milt Jackson, and Paulinho da Costa. The label also released old catalog Verve Records sessions, thus, the label released recordings from the 1950s.

In 1987 the label was acquired by Fantasy Records, which continued to release previously unissued recordings using the Pablo name. Eric Miller, who worked with Norman Granz since the early 1970s, continued with Pablo as head of A&R until the early-2000s.^[1]
