Barclay issued PR in France, up to about 7200, then I think Voix de son Maitre . Bellaphon, then Saba in Germany. Not nearly so clear about the periods, however. Some Fontanas from MV etc, also.

From what I remember, Barclay used their Prestige collaboration to release ten-inchers only in the '50s! La Voix de Son Maitre which took over the Prestige distribution in the early '60s released twelve-inchers with local made covers and pressings.

According to the PR discography, Barclay equivalents of PR LPs were:

PRLP

7002=84027 Stan Getz quartet

7003=84016 Milt Jackson quartet

7005=84028 Concorde

7006=84044 Mulligan plays Mulligan

7007=84029 Musings of Miles

7008=84045 Wardell Gray memorial vol 1 (not vol 2)

7022=84061 The brothers

7023=84054 Trombone by three

7024=84055 Sonny Stitt with Powell & Johnson

7027=84058 Thelonious Monk trio

7029=84057 Sonny Rollins with the MJQ

7031=84049 Art Farmer septet

7034=84050 Milt & Miles

7038=84051 Sonny Rollins + 4

7044=84052 Collector’s items

7046=84053 Pairing off

7047=84060 Tenor madness

7053=84082 Monk

7058=84059 Movin’ out

7061=84056 Mobley’s message

7075=84080 Rollins/Monk

7098=84079 Django (Ray Bryant)

7129=84074 Relaxin’

7142=84078 Soultrane

7166=84083 Workin’ (Miles)

7188=84086 Lush life (Trane)

7200=84087 Steamin’

8213=84085 Alone with the blues

From what you say, Brownie, these must be pretty hard to find.

Oh my :o Was that so long ago...

I remember those and thought these came from La Voix de Son Maitre. VSM also released some of them.

Had a couple of them but I have not seen those in a long, long time...

For sure they are ! try to find a copy of "le message de Hank Mobley" (no need to translate) for example....I've seen only ONE trashed copy, with a well worn cover of this one...The cover was a (rather poor) remake of the original.. a curiosity anyway.

British issues of Prestige main series albums

The last Prestige to be first issued by Esquire was Jack McDuff's "Screamin'" (PR7259 - Esq 32-196)

The first Prestige to be first issued by EMI on Stateside was Jack McDuff's "Live" (PR 7274 - SL10060)

The last Prestige to be first issued by EMI on Stateside was Carol Ventura's "I love to sing" PR7405 - SL10180 (WTF? - well, it was recorded in London)

The Prestige discography table of equivalents doesn't mention the Transatlantic issues because they used PR7XXX numbers (except for the budget reissues on Xtra), so I don't know what the first one was. The earliest one I've got (or ever seen that I can remember) is Johnny "Hammond" Smith's "The stinger" - PR7408.

Here in Holland the early titles - I think - were only available as imports (though on a very low scale). I have never seen any European pressings, except for some of the later titles (7400+) on the German Funckler label (nice laminated jackets and solid pressings). Some of the Swingville/Moodsville/Bluesville titles which were sold here had European jackets (Interdisc) but contained original pressings.

Totally correct about Bellaphon for Germany, MG. And then there were Prestige records pressed and distributed (not only in Scandinavia) by METRONOME.
