CEMA
was a record label distribution branch and budget label of
Capitol-EMI. CEMA Special Markets was the division that
handled the licensing of recordings by Capitol-EMI
artists. They also distributed special jukebox 45rpm
singles in conjunction with the Collectables record label
(which were reissues), pairing two unique sides and often
featuring longer stereo recordings that were not available
in regular record stores.
The name CEMA stood for the four EMI-owned labels it
originally distributed: Capitol Records, EMI Records,
Manhattan Records, and Angel Records (although several
other labels such as Virgin, Chrysalis, and Blue Note were
later distributed as well).
These singles are 7-inch color vinyl records by The
Beatles, released by CEMA Special Markets as "For
Jukeboxes Only" between 1992 and 1996.
