I have some of the albums mentioned in the discography, but what I have was issues by Evidence Records. I can imagine Evidence reissued recordings originally recorded and issued by Theresa. Am I right?

Right. I believe Evidence at one time (still?) owned/owns/purchased Theresa Records.

The information out there on ownership is scanty.

Evidence owns this material. This is where it was licensed from. 

We tried to do more research on the original owners of the label to see if the original multi track tapes still existed or if they still had all the live recordings they did (they recorded at at least 4 venues for the Live recording for example) but we got nowhere.

Thanks for that info.

I liked pretty much their entire catalog.

I saw that in my search but it doesn’t tell you very much as I was looking for prior ownership. There was some info about partnership but it couldn’t be substantiated. However, David Weiss confirmed present ownership. Some things are just lost to history.

Given that I have all the Evidence CD reissues and most are still unheard, I will likely pass on the Pharaoh Sanders.

It seems to me a complete story: owned by stated original owner and then sold to Evidence. Glad that Mosaic had access to what "masters" there are.
