The record archives are very extensive including complete or near complete catalogs of many important jazz labels.

Complete catalogs of many Los Angeles labels are represented including: Dial, Atomic, Nordskog, Pacific, World Pacific, Mode, Jazz West, Tampa, Contemporary, Lighthouse, Philo, HiFi, Verve, Clef, Norgran, Nocturne, Pablo, Revelation, Jewel.... back to top UNISSUED RECORDINGS The Sound Archive also includes several hundred hours of rare recordings from a variety of sources including radio broadcasts, live performances and unissued studio sessions. Many of these are one of kind items and are a very important aspect of the collection. Included are many Armed Forces Radio Service broadcasts from the 1940s which feature all of the significant artists of the period. All of the AFRS programs are represented such as Jubilee, One Night Stand, Downbeat, Spotlight Bands and Command Performance. There is also a large collection of Armed Forces V-Discs.

I have every single Pacific Jazz/World Pacific issue--and if there were Stereo and Mono issues I have both. I even have most of the "alternate" covers as well. Do You collect Contemporary/Stereo Records, Jazz West, Intro, Score, Dot, Mode, Imperial, Dooto . . . Some good stuff pressed out in LA on the local indy labels, thats for damn sure . . .
