 | JPGR&B SUBS My aim - to add all my collections on 45worlds. Member since May 2009 4565 Points Moderator | With some of the recent Beatles box sets, they contain the group's earlier albums as CDs on both the Parlophone or Capitol, with the later albums on Apple. See: The Original Studio Recordings The Beatles In Mono, and The U.S. Albums These box sets are all clearly products by The Beatles company "Apple" but what should be the lead record company for the label entry? At present we have Apple, Apple and Capitol/Apple respectively listed as the labels for these box sets. I'm minded that we should put the lead label as the predominant label on the majority of the albums, i.e. Parlophone or Capitol, with Apple being added under the "Other Labels" box. I thought we were trying to avoid having combinations, such as Capitol/Apple, as the lead label entry. Views, especially from Orbiting Cat and Dr Doom? |

 | PhilMH SUBS ● Member since Jan 2012 1058 Points | I think those existing main labels are pretty well right, actually. I tend to think of the labels on each individual disc as replicas of the original releases, rather than branded labels as such, in a similar fashion to how many of Universal's deluxe edition CD's replicate original disc labels on the disc faces. For example, the deluxe edition of The Who's MY GENERATION has replicas of UK Brunswick and US Decca 45 labels on the discs, whereas the actual release label is either Polydor (most of the world) or MCA (USA & Canada). Ditto many of Verve's jazz reissues, which replicate Decca, Mercury/EmArcy, Philips, ABC Paramount or other labels. Mind you, some people at That Other Site have a different opinion, and even want the original catalogue numbers and original company names that appear on the reproduced original LP artwork to be entered as catalogue numbers or record companies for the CD reissues! |

 | An6y66 Member since Jul 2012 1817 Points | Just had a look at the individual CDs from the beatles mono albums box set. There is no mention on the individual sleeves/discs of apple or emi only the 60's style parlophone label. So I think that parlophone should be added to the listing as a secondary label. But as apple is on the box which is the first thing you see in the overall package I agree that should be first I.e. apple/parlophone. |
