Pure Pleasure is based in Teddington, England, and has a whole range of great and world-famous artists in its repertoire. In addition to jazz, the musical spectrum of this music publisher focuses on blues, funk, soul, classical and rock/pop. In the online store www.purepleasurerecords.com you can browse through the extensive and well-stocked catalog and discover many a record in this exquisite treasure trove that you have surely been looking for for a long time.

In the "Jazz" section, for example, you will find works by such well-known artists as the Latin American legend Astrud Gilberto, the classics Ben Webster, Billie Holiday, Cab Calloway, Cannonball Adderley, Charles Mingus, Chet Baker, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, to name but a few. The high-quality recordings from the archives have been reworked by the sound engineers and sound fresh but authentic on the limited edition repressings. The high-quality discs are available at prices starting at around 25 British pounds. However, individual works, such as "Jazz At The Philharmonic In Europe" from the Verve label, cost considerably more and are available for 100 British pounds.

In the "Blues" category, the Pure Pleasure catalog includes selected works by John Lee Hooker, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Muddy Waters, Taj Mahal and the very listenable vinyl edition of "Nina Simone Sings The Blues". This excellent compilation includes a recording from 1967 at RCA Victor'S Studios.

Elvis Presley is represented with several albums in the catalog, such as "Elvis Is Back", "From Elvis In Memphis" or "A Date With Elvis". A special rarity is Ray Charles with "Genius Loves Company", the Grammy award-winning late work by the legend Ray Charles, which includes several duets with well-known guest artists.
