'''Savoy Records''' is an American record company and label established by [[Herman Lubinsky]] in 1942 in Newark, New Jersey.<ref name="New Grove">{{cite book|last1=Rye|first1=Howard|last2=Kernfeld|first2=Barry|editor1-last=Kernfeld|editor1-first=Barry|title=The New Grove Dictionary of Jazz|date=2002|publisher=Grove's Dictionaries Inc.|location=New York|isbn=1-56159-284-6|page=506|volume=3|edition=2nd}}</ref> Savoy specialized in [[jazz]], [[rhythm and blues]], and [[gospel music]].

In September 2017, Savoy was acquired by [[Concord Bicycle Music]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/concord-acquires-savoy-label-group-3000-recordings/|title=Concord acquires Savoy Label Group - and its 3,000+ recordings|date=September 21, 2017|website=Music Business Worldwide}}</ref>

==History==
In the 1940s, Savoy recorded some of the biggest names in jazz, including [[Charlie Parker]], [[Erroll Garner]], [[Dexter Gordon]], [[J. J. Johnson]], [[Fats Navarro]], and [[Miles Davis]]. In 1948, it began buying other labels: Bop, [[Discovery Records|Discovery]], [[National Records|National]], and [[Regent Records (US)|Regent]]. It also reissued music from Jewel Records.<ref name="New Grove" /> In the early 1960s, Savoy briefly recorded several [[avant-garde jazz]] artists. These included [[Paul Bley]], [[Bill Dixon]], [[Charles Moffett]], [[Perry Robinson]],  [[Archie Shepp]], [[Sun Ra]], [[Marzette Watts]], and [[Valdo Williams]].

After Lubinsky's death in 1974, [[Clive Davis]], then manager of [[Arista Records]], acquired Savoy's catalogue. After that, [[Joe Fields (producer)|Joe Fields]] of [[Muse Records]] purchased the catalogue from Arista. In 1986, [[Malaco Records]] acquired Savoy's black gospel titles and contracts.<ref>{{cite web |last=Bowman |first=Rob |title=The Malaco Story |date=2004 |url=http://www.malaco.com/story.php |access-date=24 August 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141018213352/http://www.malaco.com/story.php |archive-date=18 October 2014 }}</ref> 

In 1991, [[Nippon Columbia]] acquired Savoy and its library, and distributed Savoy releases through its wholly owned subsidiary, Savoy Jazz. In 2003, Savoy Jazz acquired the rights to the [[Muse Records|Muse]] and [[Landmark Records|Landmark]] catalogues from [[32 Jazz]].<ref name="porter">{{cite web | first=Christopher | last=Porter | title=Savoy Acquires Muse & Landmark Catalogs | url=http://jazztimes.com/articles/22216-savoy-acquires-muse-landmark-catalogs | date=16 January 2003 | website=[[JazzTimes]] | access-date=13 October 2014 }}</ref> In 2009, the label entered a distribution arrangement with [[Warner Music Group]].<ref name="wmg">{{Cite press release |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |title=WEA Announces Exclusive Distribution Agreement with Legendary Savoy Label Group |url=http://investors.wmg.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=182480&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=708327 |location=New York |publisher=Warner Music Group |date=February 28, 2005 |access-date=October 13, 2014 }}</ref> Savoy included the rock imprint [[429 Records]].

Many of the label's African American artists begrudged the label's founder, Herman Lubinsky, feeling underpaid for their work. Tiny Price, a journalist for the African American newspaper ''The Newark Herald News'', said of Savoy and Lubinsky:
<blockquote>There's no doubt everybody hated Herman Lubinsky. If he messed with you, you were messed. At the same time, some of those people, many of them Newark's top singers and musicians, would never have been exposed on records if he didn't do what he did. Except for Lubinsky, all the hot little numbers, like Buddy Johnson's "Cherry", would have been lost. The man may have been hated, but he saved a lot of our history for us and for future generations.<ref>{{cite book |last=Kukla |first=Barbara J. |title=Swing City: Newark Nightlife 1925 50 |publisher=Temple University Press |date=1991 |isbn=0-87722-874-4 |lccn=91003176 |page=158 }}</ref></blockquote>

Savoy's artistic directors included [[Buck Ram]], [[Teddy Reig]], [[Ralph Bass]] (1948–1952), [[Fred Mendelsohn]] (1953), and [[Ozzie Cadena]] (1954–1962).
