COMMENTS | The original Beatles cassette
release of "Sgt. Peppers" in 1968, through "Abbey Road
(1969)", "Let It Be (June 1970)", and the first release of
most of the other Beatles cassette albums in September and
October, 1970, just months after EMI opened their new tape
duplicating facilities at Hayes in Middlesex in July, 1970. Prior to the opening of their own plant, EMI's cassette tapes were manufactured for them by the Dutch firm, Phillips, who themselves had pioneered the concept of the musicassette format. These 1968-1972 first edition Beatles cassettes were manufactured in small numbers, and in an "experimental and tentative" design to test a then unknown, but potentially large market, which was still dominated by vinyl, and as such, are scarce and rare desirable finds for collectors today. Sgt. Peppers: released October, 1967, 4 months after vinyl counterpart Abbey Road: released October/November,1969, at the same time as vinyl counterpart. Let It Be: released June,1970, at approx same time as vinyl counterpart. The above are known as the "original" cassettes, and were essentially EMI's trial design of the brand new music format, to test the market for cassette tape products - a format designed for 'on the move' listening on car stereo players. Attractive though the "Sgt. Peppers" and "Abbey Road" inlay designs were, it was the "Let It Be", inlay design that became the favoured one, and provided the template for the first cassette releases of the other Beatles albums in September and October 1970. (except "Magical Mystery Tour" and "Yellow Submarine") Rubber soul, Revolver, and A Collection of Beatles Oldies were issued in September, 1970. The 1970/1971 cassettes all had white inlays and aside from the small reproduction of the vinyl album front cover, no art work was included, nor the original liner notes. The tracklistings were printed on the reverse of the inlay whilst the foldovers offered a list of other available Beatles/solo cassettes. The two exceptions to this rule were "Revolver", which had a black spine and a black top above the front cover artwork. It was only available in this form for a short period before being replaced by a standard white inlay design, although this particular version did not promote any other releases. The cassette shell labels during this 1970/1971 "white inlay" period were yellow and carried the new style black-boxed Parlophone/EMI logo or no logo at all. 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 excuse being the need to have two sides of equal length to avoid the problem of listeners stopping the tape at the end of one side and turning over to start mid-way through the opening track on the reverse. 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).
