LP Vinyl Record Album - 1972
Beatles - Revolver
I have had this framed on my wall for awhile now and it is time to let it go.
Rare Longines record club pressing on the harder to find Orange label club pressing. In November, 1972, Capitol changed their label style to an "all orange" label. So too did the record club. By this time, the club was on the wane, though, and only one Beatles record is known on this style: Cover has the three white diagonal stripes on the left upper corner, the ST-8-2576 number on the spine and on the back and the number '16' in a small white square on the back bottom right under the RIAA logo.
Orange label has "Manufactured by Longines Symphonette" on the left of the spindle hole and also the perimeter print on both sides.
The Capitol Records RECORD CLUB enticed people to join by offering half-dozen or so "free" records in exchange for the new member buying one record and agreeing to club membership rules. After Longines (Longines-Wittnauer Company) took over the Club in 1968, Capitol quit supplying albums to the club, instead Longines arranged for the manufacture of Capitol albums using cover artwork and label backdrops supplied by Capitol. The LP back covers have three angled black bars in the upper right hand corner which wrap around to the front cover in the upper left hand corner, and do not have the "File Under" information. Longines also altered the record number of the LPs by adding the number "8" to the prefix. By the time Longines began pressing Capitol Beatles albums in 1968, Mono discs have been phased out. Thus, there are no Mono Longines pressings of Beatles albums.
This Longines Beatles album is less common than the standard Capitol albums, which sold in the millions. There always will be a premium interest by Collectors for this very RARE RECORD CLUB Longines pressings.
