EMI RECORDS Highlights Aus 40 Jahren Vinyl - Schallplattenherstellung Bei EMI Electrola In Köln (Rare 1993 German only 56-track limited edition triple compilation LP, issued on the occasion of the closing down of the Marweg pressing plant & featuring a selection of tracks from the EMI catalogue on vinyl for what they believed would be the last time. The first disc is devoted to European artists, the second to world conquering acts such as The Beatles, Pet Shop Boys, Pink Floyd, Queen,The Beach Boys, Cliff Richard & more, the third to classical themes. Each individual album has classic 'Nipper' retro labels, is in its own picture inner with representations of the artists featured & the tracklisting of the disc, complete with a fold out brochure with text in German & English, all tucked away in a nice high quality textured sleeve. The brochure shows a little creasing where it obviously got squashed by the albums, but the sleeve shows very little in the way of shelfwear & all vinyl is mint. A stupendous set & a fitting tribute to the end of the EMI vinyl pressing plants in Europe. Limited to just 5,000 copies, with most going to EMI employees & outlets, this is now extremely hard to find, especially in this near perfect condition!)
