Teasing the Korean Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 What was the deal with these? Were they manufactured for the Capitol Record Club? Over the years I've come across a number of Verve albums - mostly mid to late 60s releases - and a couple of Atlantics. They usually have a Capitol-esque catalog number listed somewhere on the cover and/or label, while leaving the original catalog number intact elsewhere. Quote

Yes, they were manufactured for the Capitol Record Club, who apparently sold quite a few. I've also seen Capitol pressings of ABC/Impulse titles. Quote

Teasing the Korean Posted December 5, 2006 Author Report Posted December 5, 2006 Thank you. I still have dreams about the dollar bins at Stereo Jack's, pathetic though that may sound... Quote
