Santiago Molinero Sisto 18th May 2024 | | Vinyl AlbumPaul Nero Sounds - Nero’s Soul Party (1969) | Next album to this one is the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang soundtrack on United Artists Records.
The number may vary from 5048 to 6048. This is due to the Estereo kind. Originally, EMI suppliers made a difference between mono and stereo by the first number. 5XXX for mono and 6XXX for Stereo. In the 70s this system was drop and it was started to being used the “S” prefix for stereo.
Notice that the number is consecutive, but no the X letter.

Santiago Molinero Sisto 8th Jun 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumSandy Nelson - Que Retumben Los Parches, Vol. 2 (1969) | Something to comment:
It seems that the EMI suppliers (Sud America) S.A.C. e I. company had a cataloging system for the albums under it’s management.
This album, under catalog 5035, has a continuation on Parlophone, with another album the 5036/6036.
https://www.45worlds.com/vinyl/album/5036ar
In the 60s the 5XXX meant Monophonic LPs, and 6XXX stereophonic LPs. This was used in A&M records, Liberty, Parlophone, United Artists and more labels.
In the 70s it was started to use to “S” prefix for “Stereo” albums.
Sometimes it was followed by a “X” or a “C”. This was used for no reason, but sometimes goers were the key to understand this system. They could be gatefolds.

The label is the one with the motto “Alta Fidelidad Sonido Estereofónico” which translates to “Full Frequency Stereophonic Sound”. Still, it has the FFRR logo with the ear.
The “Phase 4 Stereo” label design started to appears when I.E.M.O. S.A.I.C. begin to credit “The Decca Record Company limited” as the one which gives them the license to press any records of Deram, London or any label they owned until the Phonogram or Polygram purchase of Decca (UK)

Santiago Molinero Sisto 20th Feb 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumLos Beatles - Rubber Soul | Hi. There’s something I want to mention because it seems important to me.
I have the theory or belief that this pressing, more exactly, the one showed here, is from 1976 or 1978. Why I think this? Well, if you see the EMI beige and red design from 1973 to 1975, the tiny EMI logo seems to me “more” boxed. Having lines on the edges. But from 1976 to 1978 or 1980, this design, with the “simple boxed” logo, was implemented.
