| COMMENTS | The original Beatles cassette
release of "Sgt. Pepper's" in October 1967, through "Abbey Road (November 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.
Between 1967 and June 1970, EMI's early musicassettes were manufactured by the Dutch firm, Philips themselves - the inventor and originator of the cassette. EMI opened its new tape duplicating facilities at Hayes, Middlesex in July 1970. These cassettes had bright yellow paper labels. Logo styles varied by period and copy, including the black-boxed EMI/Parlophone logo and labels without a logo. The absence of a logo may have been due to a shortage of costly letterpress blocks. The white inlay design of Let It Be provided the template for most subsequent Beatles cassette releases. Most Beatles cassette releases in 1970 and 1971 used white inlays with a small reproduction of the album cover, but no additional artwork or original liner notes. The codes 7010 and 7009 on the inside of the inlay are thought to indicate its printing date (October and September 1970, respectively), followed by the printer's initials: EJD, G&L or DP (Ernest J. Day, Garrod & Lofthouse or Data Packaging). An inlay's printing date does not necessarily establish when the cassette itself was issued. Advertising for other Beatles/solo albums was on the foldover front, and the EMI UK catalog 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. The cassette running order may have been rearranged to balance the playing times of the two sides. It was most likely also related to the need to balance the four programs on the 8-track edition produced alongside it. The "DP (*2)" logo was embossed on the cassette shells. "MADE IN U.S.A./Made in England" was not embossed on the shell. (*1) EMI country code: 1E 262 o 04181 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 mean the record was also released in that country (from Discogs). OC / 0C / 1E= UK (*2) 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 molded into cassette shells, especially during the early to mid 1970s. |
