Capitol white label
(promotional use only). The words "MFD. BY TOSHIBA MUSICAL INDUSTRIES LTD. IN JAPAN" was printed at the perimeter. Capitol test LPs feature the perimeter print, Capitol logo, and circled text in green. The label design is similar to that used for the regular commercial Capitol LPs. These are most commonly found on red vinyl. In Japan, promotional records have traditionally been provided at no charge to radio stations, record shops, and the mass media to increase the sales of a record or in some cases to promote a tour. There are two types of promotional releases. Type-1: This type is called the white label promo for which a unique label has been made. The label design of Odeon white label singles is very similar to that of regular commercial Odeon singles. The promo version, however, features the perimeter print, Odeon logo, and circled text in red and all other printing in black. The print in black has an unusual "hand lettered" look to it quite unlike the regular commercial version. The release date is in black and appears above and to the left of the title. Most usually, the regular cover is used with appropriate alterations to prohibit commercial sale. Type-2: The second type of promo record is less elaborate and is called a sticker promo. It is simply a regular commercial release that has a promo sticker affixed to the cover. This type of promo is occasionally found on post-1975 releases. The Hollyridge Strings was an American studio orchestra that specialized in easy-listening music, and recorded for the Capitol Records label in the 1960s and 1970s. Stu Phillips, Mort Garson, and Perry Botkin, Jr. were among those who produced, arranged, and conducted the group's recordings. The group specialized in orchestral versions of songs by such then-contemporary pop-music artists as The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Four Seasons, Elvis Presley, Simon & Garfunkel, and Nat "King" Cole. Hollyridge Strings' "The New Beatles Song Book", Promotional Records. The Japanese title is "Michelle", but given the English title "New Songbook", it seems to be "Beatles Songbook Vol. 3". It is commonly called the "Horse Cover" because of the horseback riding photo on the jacket. At present, only a sample version has been found, so it is thought to be a discontinued version. Akinobu Kamebuchi: Japanese radio DJ and announcer. |
