EMI
originally issued the Beatles UK albums on cassette tape
with re-arranged running orders, the reason for this was
that because of the 8-track stereo tapes made at the same
time, it was necessary to adjust the endless tape's four
tracks to be approximately the same length. |

| COMMENTS | The original Beatles cassette
release of "Sgt. Peppers" in Oct. 1967, through "Abbey Road
(Nov. 1969)", "Let It Be (August 1970)", and the first
release of most of the other Beatles cassette albums in
Sept. and Oct, 1970, just months after EMI opened their new
tape duplicating facilities at Hayes in Middlesex in July,
1970.
EMI opened its new tape duplicating facilities at Hayes, Middlesex in July 1970. All came with bright yellow paper label cassettes, their IE international catalogue numbers, and the newly designed, black box, EMI/Parlophone logo - although some were issued without the logo due to a lack of expensive letterpress blocks. The front and reverse of the inlays came in the "white inlay" design, for which the Let It Be inlay design of June 1970 was the template. The 1970/71 cassettes had white inlays and, aside from the small reproduction of the front cover, no artwork was included nor the original liner notes. Note the 7010 (or 7009) notation on the inside inlay followed by either EJD, G&L or DP. This was the number of the month/year of issue, followed by the printers initials ( Ernest J Day, Garrod & Lofthouse or Data Packaging). Advertising for other Beatles/solo albums was on the foldover front, and the EMI UK catalogue no. (TC-PCS-XXXX) was on the front cover at the top and on the spine. The spine also carried the tape speed, 1&7/8 ths in a circular logo style at the top. The cassette cases ("Norelco" cases) were clear plastic at the front and around the spine area, and black plastic at the rear. EMI originally issued the Beatles UK albums on cassette tape with re-arranged running orders, the reason for this was that because of the 8-track stereo tapes made at the same time, it was necessary to adjust the endless tape's four tracks to be approximately the same length. Data Packaging Corporation (who also traded as Hellerman Data Packaging Ltd) supplied cassette and 8 track shells, tape and other components to the music industry. The "DP" logo can often be found moulded into cassette shells, especially during the early to mid 1970s. (*1) EMI country code: 1E 262 o 04115 The EMI country codes (introduced on 1 June, 1969): In most cases the EMI Codes are the first two letters of the record's catalog#. These EMI Country Codes were used to indicate the country in which the record was pressed. Note this doesn't necessarily means the record was also released in that country (from Discog).
