InColumbia Graphophone Company acquired the Parlophone business, label name and its titles. During the early sixties, EMI had approximately presses. If all the machines were running, the factory could manufacture approximatelyrecords a day. Although some factories changed stampers after press run of as little as records, EMI did not change stampers that frequently. Stampers would be replaced when they were no longer capable of producing a quality-sounding disc. Lacquers were used to create the metal parts needed for manufacturing records. Each side of the record has its own set of metal parts. The basic procedure has been in use for over one hundred years with only minor changes. EMI made its metal parts at its Hayes factory. When this metal was removed from the Lacquer, it was a copy of the Lacquer and of the yet to be produced record. In the earliest days the Master was used as a mold to press Beatles for Sale on Parlophone Records sold to the public, but as demand for mass production of records grew, another step was added to the process. The Stampers would be used in hydraulic presses to mould the LP discs. The advantages of this system Beatles for Sale on Parlophone Records the earlier more direct system included ability to make a large number of records quickly by using multiple stampers. Also, more records could be produced from each Master since molds would eventually wear out.

    1 Playlist Nov. 13th 2016 LIVE! From DUKES in Malibu 9AM / OPEN Three hours non stop uninterrupted Music from JPG&R…as we broadcast LIVE from DUKES in Malibu…. John Lennon – Steel and Glass - Walls And Bridges ‘74 Much like “How Do You Sleep” three years earlier, this is another blistering Lennon track that sets its sights on Allen Klein (who had contributed lyrics to “How Do You Sleep” those few years before). The Beatles - Revolution 1 - The Beatles 2 The first song recorded during the sessions for the “White Album.” At the time of its recording, this slower version was the only version of John Lennon’s “Revolution,” and it carried that titled without a “1” or a “9” in the title. Recording began on May 30, 1968, and 18 takes were recorded. On the final take, the first with a lead vocal, the song continued past the 4 1/2 minute mark and went onto an extended jam. It would end at 10:17 with John shouting to the others and to the control room “OK, I’ve had enough!” The final six minutes were pure chaos with discordant instrumental jamming, plenty of feedback, percussive clicks (which are heard in the song’s introduction as well), and John repeatedly screaming “alright” and moaning along with his girlfriend, Yoko Ono. Ono also spoke random streams of consciousness on the track such as “if you become naked.” This bizarre six-minute section was clipped off the version of what would become “Revolution 1” to form the basis of “Revolution 9.” Yoko’s “naked” line appears in the released version of “Revolution 9” at 7:53.

  • History of Parlophone Singles Parlophon Began As a German
    History of Parlophone Singles Parlophon began as a German company founded in 1896 by Carl Lindström, a Swedish inventor who lived in Berlin. Lindström made phonographs using the name “Parlophon,” and dictating machines using the name “Parlograph.” In 1911, Lindström’s company obtained controlling interest in the International Talking Machine Company – the German corporation that owned and had created Odeon Records. Lindström saw the opportunity to merge the European record manufacturing and player manufacturing markets, and to expand this new industry. During this period, records were being exported from Germany to Great Britain in increasing numbers – so that German imports consisted of a sizable portion of the British record market. Lindström endeavored to expand the production of Odeon’s discs worldwide, and after the First World War he succeeded in bringing the Odeon label to the United States, but his struggles to acquire a British company had been unsuccessful. William Barry Owen worked for German‐American inventor Emile Berliner, the man who introduced the disc record and “gramophone” in late 1887. In July, 1897, he left US‐based National Gramophone Company, a subsidiary of Berliner Gramophone, to move to England. He and Trevor Williams founded the UK Gramophone Company in May, 1898 – not long after Lindström founded his Parlophon company in Germany. Their independent company became Berliner’s partner in Britain. One of Berliner’s associates was Frank Seaman, who had managed the National Gramophone Company. Seaman left Berliner in 1899. Using technology that he “borrowed” from Berliner, Seaman founded Zon‐o‐Phone Records. Seaman pursued an alliance with Columbia Records, offering Columbia royalties for the stylus design in exchange for driving Emile Berliner out of business in America.

  • The Beatles: Eight Days a Week – the Touring Years
    1 THE BEATLES: EIGHT DAYS A WEEK – THE TOURING YEARS Release Dates U.S. Theatrical Release September 16 SVOD September 17 U.K., France and Germany (September 15). Australia and New Zealand (September 16) Japan (September 22) www.thebeatleseightdaysaweek.com #thebeatleseightdaysaweek Official Twitter handle: @thebeatles Facebook: facebook.com/thebeatles YouTube: youtube.com/thebeatles Official Beatles website: www.thebeatles.com PREFACE One of the prospects that drew Ron Howard to this famous story was the opportunity to give a whole new generation of people an insightful glimpse at what happened to launch this extraordinary phenomenon. One generation – the baby boomers - had a chance to grow up with The Beatles, and their children perhaps only know them vicariously through their parents. As the decades have passed The Beatles are still as popular as ever across all these years, even though many of the details of this story have become blurred. We may assume that all Beatles’ fans know the macro-facts about the group. The truth is, however, only a small fraction are familiar with the ins and outs of the story, and of course, each new generation learns about The Beatles first and foremost, from their music. So, this film is a chance to reintroduce a seminal moment in the history of culture, and to use the distance of time, to give us the chance to think about “the how and the why” this happened as it did. So, while this film has a lot of fascinating new material and research, first and foremost, it is a film for those who were “not there”, especially the millennials.

  • THE BEATLES IMAGE: MASS MARKETING 1960S BRITISH and AMERICAN MUSIC and CULTURE, OR BEING a SHORT THESIS on the DUBIOUS PACKAGE of the BEATLES
    THE BEATLES IMAGE: MASS MARKETING 1960s BRITISH AND AMERICAN MUSIC AND CULTURE, OR BEING A SHORT THESIS ON THE DUBIOUS PACKAGE OF THE BEATLES by Richard D Driver, Bachelor of Arts A Thesis In HISTORY Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Texas Tech University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS Approved Aliza S Wong Randy McBee John Borrelli Dean of the Graduate School May, 2007 Copyright 2007, Richard Driver Texas Tech University, Richard D Driver, May 2007 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This work could not have been possible without the encouragement and guidance of a number of individuals, as well as countless persons who pulled books, worked through interlibrary loans, and simply listened to me talk about it. Without the guidance, tolerance, insight, time, and encouragement of my committee, Aliza S Wong and Randy McBee, this thesis would have remained nothing more than a passing thought. Aliza, more than any other professor has been there for me since this project truly began over two years ago. It was her initial push for me to write about something I loved that drove me to attend Graduate school and then build upon what I had done previously with The Beatles “image.” Dr. McBee provided excellent guidance into understanding many of the post-war American facets of this work, not simply those related to The Beatles or music in general. Additional thanks are reserved for Dr. Julie Willett for her class on sexuality and gender where new methods and modes of historical thought were founded in this work. Finally, this thesis would have been impossible had I not been accepted into and granted a teaching position in the History Department at Texas Tech University, and it is to the entire department that I owe my greatest thanks.
