Weinstock, 77, of Deerfield Beach, died Saturday of complications stemming from diabetes.
The service will take place at 2 p.m. Sunday at Riverside Gordon Memorial Chapel, 2305 W. Hillsboro Blvd., Deerfield Beach.
Weinstock, who founded the New York-based Prestige record label and later recorded local Florida musicians, got his start in the business as a teenager selling records out of his New York City apartment. Through his sales, he met a number of musicians and kicked off his own recording business in 1949, after the war.
“There was a ban on recording LPs because they were petroleum based," said his son, James Weinstock of North Lauderdale. “After the ban was lifted, artists wanted to record."
Weinstock released hundreds of recordings, his family said, including King Pleasure's, Moody's Mood For Love; and four albums by Miles Davis including Cookin' With the Miles Davis Quintet.
