WORLD PACIFIC 45 RPM 77800 SERIES
PART ONE – 77801 / 77820

© James A. Harrod, COPYRIGHT PROTECTED; ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

The 77800 45 single series began when the release designation for the 400 45 single series was reassigned to a matrix series with the release of 77800 that carried matrix numbers WP-429-B and WP-430. The second release in the 77800 series, 77801, had matrix numbers WP-432 and WP-433.  The 77800 series would be the final 45 RPM single series for the World Pacific/Pacific Jazz/Aura line and would be a mixed bag of musical genres, drawing from the new Pacific Jazz PJ series, the World Pacific 1400 and 1800 LP series, the Aura LP series and random single releases not drawn from an LP release.

The artists represented in this first group of releases include: The Gil Fuller Orchestra with Dizzy Gillespie, The Gerald Wilson Orchestra, Les McCann with the Gerald Wilson Orchestra, Glenn Campbell, Monty Alexander, The Jazz Crusaders, Billy Larkin and The Delegates, Bob Lind, The Gypsy Trips, Jon-Jon Lewis, Sonny Knight, Ravi Shankar, Bud Shank and the Bob Florence Orchestra, Chet Baker and The Mariachi Brass, The Hard Times, The Carmel Strings featuring Larry Knechtel, The Gil Fuller Orchestra featuring James Moody, The Rhythm Folk and Kiki Dee.
