COMMENTS | The Capitol New Purple Label records have
a CLJ catalog number and usually have numbers in the
40,000s. On the label, the Capitol logo is small, and the
text around the edge starts with "MANUFACTURED BY CAPITOL
RECORDS. INC.," 1988-90 pressing of Capitol’s series of their earlier UK album catalog, first issued in 1987 for the first time in the US (outside the Mo-Fi limited editions), matching their CD counterparts (and using the same catalog numbers). Digital masters were used in these pressings. Catalog number of CLJ-46435 (seen on spine, upper left front cover, lower left back cover and labels) Purple Capitol label design with the Parlophone logo on the left side of label above the “1” and “2”. Capitol oval and EMI rectangle logos along the bottom back cover. UPC on the back is square in shape Disc comes in a clear rice-paper sleeve. Most copies came with a 2” round red sticker stating “DIGITALLY REMASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL BRITISH CATALOG” with the album title, cat # and Printed in U.S.A. Pressed at Specialty Records Corporation as identified by AL-SP plus the Allied 'ɑ' stamp and "B-#####"-type matrix number in the runouts, which means this was plated at Allied but the record itself was actually pressed at Specialty. *) Specialty Records Corporation: Defunct US manufacturer and pressing plant located in Olyphant, Pennsylvania. Founded in 1946, Specialty Records Corporation (SRC) was at one point one of the biggest pressing plants in the world. Usually on vinyl from late 1970s to 2000s, denoted by a machine-stamped "SRC" logo in the runout groove deadwax (S with R and C in loops). Records that have the "SRC" logo along with an "SPAR" or "SP-AL" etching and a "B-#####"-type matrix number in the runout groove deadwax indicate that the plating (processing / metalwork) was done at Specialty Records Corporation but the record itself was pressed at Allied Record Company. *) Allied Record Record pressing plant / cassette and CD manufacturer in Los Angeles, California. Operating under this name from 1962 until the end of 1996. |
