Subject: Information request 

Hello,

I'm one of the editors of the MusicBrainz music information database.
MusicBrainz strives at providing up to date informations about music releases (more about MusicBrainz at their homepage: http://musicbrainz.org/ and http://musicbrainz.org/doc/AboutMusicBrainz).

I'm in the process of documenting your catalog in the database.
Despite my researches, I couldn't find some informations, hence I have a few questions that I'm hoping you could provide answers for.

I - "Just Jazz"

Would you qualify this as a collection name, or as a sublabel (subsidiary) of Passport Audio?

II - "Black Label"

Some of the releases in your catalog appear to have been previously released (possibly with different sleeves, though with identical content), by a label named "Black Label". For example:
http://www.amazon.com/Jazz-Their-Old-Various-Artists/dp/B000AA4JE8
as compared with
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000000ZW7/

Now, am still clueless what is "Black Label" and what are/were your relations with them.

In the hope you can help me with this,

Best regards,
