'''Limelight Records''' is a subsidiary of [[Mercury Records]]. A sub-label started by [[Quincy Jones]], featured [[Art Blakey]], [[Les McCann]], [[Dizzy Gillespie]], [[Gerry Mulligan]], [[Chet Baker]] and many other obscure, yet prominent [[Jazz]] musicians. In the late 1960's, the label started to push the envelope with [[Experimental music]]. A Total of 71 albums (including one 2-discs album) were released under the Limelight label series. Some of the Limelight series has been re-issued on CD. A good deal of the original Limelight releases are very hard to find. It might take some [[crate digging]] to turn up these treasures. | '''Limelight Records''' is a subsidiary of [[Mercury Records]].
