COMMENTS
|
From 1964 through the end of 1965, all of
Odeon's EP releases were on an orange label with black print. Like their earlier counterparts, all of these are collectible today. The three dark blue label EP's were reissued onto the orange label. The prefix "S" does not stand for stereo, but probably rather “standard.” All of the SOE series EP's are in mono. J.Colombet, Paris XV: French printing company based in Paris. A number figures often near the logo as a print date. For example, 50 means May 1960 and 111 means November 1961. The new logo can be printed without Paris XV information but it keeps the "J" design. The new logo JColombet began to be printed on EP's in February 1960. Before, we can find Imprimerie Jean Colombet or Colombet. There is no rules for LP's often credited in Imprimerie Jean Colombet. |

COMMENTS
|
For the first few months of 1966, a few
EP's were issued on a red label with large ODÉON. It is easy to see
that this was an intermediary release, since by this time the Odeon
logo on the EP covers had changed. The EP's which exist in this
intermediate form are:
The EP’s numbered MEO‐101 and MEO‐102 were released in January, 1966. While the Hollies EP is scarcer, the Beatles’ MEO‐102 may be found having a label marked “Médium” at the right side, or (less commonly) with a label showing an “M” in a circle. The circle‐M appears on most releases beginning in February, 1966. Later pressings of these records sometimes show “M” without a circle. At the beginning of May, 1966, Odeon replaced their earlier label with a red label and their logo with a logo that more closely resembled those used in other countries. The red label appears on all Odeon releases of the time, but when France took up the EEC numbering in 1969, they stopped using the original catalog numbers on Beatles releases. EP's originally released on the red label are shown below. You will notice that some records which were originally released on the dark blue/orange label were reissued and given new catalog numbers. Although the EP was essentially replaced by the single, or simple, in 1967, the EP's continued to be issued on the red label at least through 1969. The above four "transitional" EP's were reissued onto the red label.
Symbol "M" with the circle was printed on the label's center right. IDN: French printing company. I.D.N. is an acronym standing for "Imprimerie Du Nord". Identified on most records with the sentence : "IDN made in France" or "I.D.N. made in France" |
