COMMENTS | 1979 UK compilation vinyl LP, which is
unusual in that it includes tracks that otherwise only
appeared on Immediate, Regal Zonophone or Apple, including
The Beatles, George Harrison, John Lennon, Small Faces,
Procol Harum & more. Sleeve laminated front and back. Released on EMI but on the Harvest Label. Monument: Liam Neary Tracks A5, A8, A10, B1, B2, B8 and B9 are mono recordings electronically reprocessed to give a stereo effect on stereo equipment. No writer or artist credits on labels. 2nd. Press: Brown and Red EMI label (maybe) From the summer of 1976 E.M.I. embarked on a new series of T.V. advertised albums, the first of these was EMTV 1 - The Beach Boys "20 Golden Greats" which stayed at the top slot for 10 weeks. Glen Campbell was EMTV 2, The Shadows were the third, and The Beatles became the 4th ... hence the unusual catalogue number. EMTV 5 was The Supremes, EMTV 6 was Cliff Richard, EMTV 7 was The Black and White Minstrels, EMTV 8 was Buddy Holly, EMTV 9 was Nat 'King' Cole, and EMTV 10 was Frank Sinatra. All of the above were heavily (and expensively) promoted on nationwide T.V. and all had immense chart success. Harvest Records was created by EMI in 1969 to market progressive rock music and to compete with Philips' Vertigo and Decca's Harvest labels, initially under the direction of Malcolm Jones and Norman Smith. The first release in July 1969 was a UK issue of Deep Purplefs gBook Of Taliesynh which had originally been released in the US on the Tetragrammaton label at the end of 1968. cf: "Rare Record Collector" |
