Mosaic Records is an American specialist jazz record label founded in 1983 by Michael Cuscuna and Charlie Lourie (current partner Fred Pustay, joined in 1994) to issue coherent limited edition box sets (initially on LP) of jazz recordings by individual musicians, which had fallen out-of-print. The sets would be leased from the major record companies, usually for a three- or five-year period, with the edition limited to a specific number of copies. In 2003 the company initiated the Select series of smaller sets, not necessarily "complete" in the usual sense. In 2006, the company began a third line, Mosaic Singles, a series dedicated to reissuing individual albums on CD which have not previously been available in US editions, or at all.
