Our Vinyl Revivalist X-Term group has been meeting one Thursday a month for about an hour and half, since last September. This past Thursday we discussed record labels and pressings! After receiving a packet of information, taken from a record pricing guide, the students read up on detailed descriptions of various record labels, based on design, color of the label, etc. They were later asked to review the 16 or so albums on display, which included some labels like Impulse, Blue Note, Tamla, Verve, Atco, Atlantic, and Stax. Meticulously, they peered at the labels, and identified about 10 albums, along with the year of pressing, label name, and artist and genre information. Here are some photos from their experience. Thanks for reading!
Trying to figure stuff out.
Marvin Gaye! Early Tamla Pressing!
A good spread.
