 Fantasy Records - definition of Fantasy Records in Encyclopedia

Zaentz had picked up Debut Records as a wedding present from Bassist Charles Mingus to which were added Prestige Records (in 1971), Riverside Records and Milestone Records (both 1972), Contemporary Records (1984), Pablo Records and Stax Records (both 1987).
The label was the first to record "in person" performances by Lenny Bruce.

 Saul Zaentz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fantasy Records owns the rights to the music of Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Zaentz has had a long-running disagreement about this with former CCR singer/songwriter John Fogerty.
Fantasy Records was sold to independent jazz label Concord in 2005 for $80 million.
In 1955 he joined Fantasy Records, for many years the largest independent jazz record label in the world.

 Riverside Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Riverside Records was a United States record label specializing in jazz.
Most of the company's masters were acquired by ABC-Paramount Records, which subsequently sold them to Fantasy Records in 1972.
Many of Riverside's albums have been reissued on CD as part of Fantasy's "Original Jazz Classics" series.

 CD reviews of Original Jazz Classics Samplers from Fantasy
While Fantasy Records itself is best-known as the label that handled (and ultimately alienated) Creedence Clearwater Revival, it was founded in the early 1950s as a vehicle for pianist Dave Brubeck to distribute his own recordings.
Among those who recorded for Fantasy in the 1950s heyday of West Coast Jazz were Vince Guaraldi (famed for his soundtracks to the animated "Peanuts" TV specials), Chet Baker, Stan Getz and Cal Tjader.
Riverside Records was founded by a couple of young jazzhounds in the early 1950s, and unaccountably grew into another one of the best jazz labels on the scene.

 Hoodoo - John Fogerty's Lost Album
While the "Rangers" album was and is a die-hard fan favorite and caught on a bit with country music fans, it was overlooked for the most part by the general public.
Unfortunately, Fogerty was in the midst of a continuing legal battle with Fantasy, his old record label.
The quality of the pressing of this Fantasy single was awful, the sound was so bad radio stations refused to play it.

 Fantasy
Fantasy Records, along with its subsidiary Galaxy, was established in San Francisco in 1949 by Max and Sol Weiss.
Fantasy's ambitious reissue programs have been influential industry-wide, highlighting aspects of its vast catalog from acid jazz to folk and blues to classic jazz in "twofer" CDs, boxed sets, 20-bit remastered CDs, and beginning in fall 2003, SA-CDs.
Their first artist was an Oakland pianist named Dave Brubeck, and when Brubeck's recordings began to sell, they went on to record Gerry Mulligan, Chet Baker, and Cal Tjader, as well as Odetta, beat poets Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Allen Ginsberg, and comic Lenny Bruce.

 hotdiscomix :: Fantasy Records :: Label Portrait
Fantasy Records wurde 1949 von Max und Sol Weiss in San Francisco gegründet.
Die 80er Jahre brachten nur noch wenige Dance Hits und Fantasy Records orientierte sich wieder mehr in Richtung Jazz.
1977 erwarb Fantasy den Katalog von Stax Records.
http://www.hotdiscomix.de/labels/fantasy_index.htm

  
 The History of Stax Records
Stax Records, a name which is synonymous with Southern soul music, began as Satellite Records in Memphis in 1959.
The Staple Singers were at their artistic peak when they recorded for Stax during the late 1960s and early 1970s, turning out records that blended a utopian social vision with rhythmic excitement.
By June 1977, virtually all Stax assets, including all masters, both completed and unfinished recordings, together with all Stax contracts, were purchased by Fantasy Records.

 Jazzcorner's Speakeasy - Farewell to Fantasy
Concord Records has announced that they have completed their purchase of the record labels and music catalog of Fantasy Inc. of Berkeley, California.
Concord Records, originally named Concord Jazz, was founded in 1973 by Carl Jefferson, a car dealer and jazz lover who staked himself in the jazz record business when it was at a low ebb, and then profited as the music merged from the ashes over the last three decades.
Brothers Max and Sol Weiss Fantasy Records in 1949, and for most of the last few decades was owned by movie mogul Saul Zaentz.

 SH Forums - Fantasy Records to be part of Universal?
I have probably 2/3 of his CDs on Fantasy so far...but at least I have a vinyl copy of all of his albums.
(Probably, what, 60-70 recordings?) Concord had his albums on CD fairly quickly in the 80s, DCC took care of the Skye albums, and Fantasy has been steady in reissuing his albums, working on the more obscure albums lately.
The only issue I have with Fantasy is when they do a two-fer release, they leave off a song or two to make them fit on the disc.

Billy Cobham was the drummer on that recording.
In addition to reissues, Fantasy recorded new music as well, including memorable Milestone albums by Sonny Rollins and McCoy Tyner.
My first Fantasy releases, back in the 60s, were Lenny Bruce’s recordings, which had a tremendous impact on my teenage years.

 Out Of Print Records? - Fantasy Football Cafe 2005
I've searched Ebay for their greatest hits CD, but the three "greatest hits" records I found don't have all of the songs I want.
I've been searching high and low for copies of their records here in the states only to discover that most of their library isn't available at your local record store.
But, I went to Tower Records and a few other major record stores only to discover they had no domestic releases available.

NEW YORK -- Now that jazz label Concord Records has beaten out more than a half-dozen suitors to win the auction of Fantasy Records, it needs to complete its due diligence and nail down the details of what could turn into a complex financial transaction.
