Solo Art Records is an American record label and was purchased by Rudi Blesh and Harriet Janis from the original owner in 1946, and run alongside their Circle label. It had issued recordings of solo jazz and blues piano on 78rpm discs. The label was sold with the Circle label to the George H. Buck Jr. Jazz Foundation, located in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1979.
Since George Buck's acquisition of the Solo Art label, it has remained dedicated to the presentation of solo performances of jazz and blues pianists, from the 1940s to the present.
