At that time the late James Burnett was especially helpful in providing dates for the L’Oiseau-Lyre recordings that he produced. More information was obtained from additional paperwork in association with Richard Alston for his book published to celebrate the conductor’s 70 th birthday in 1997. John Hunt’s most valuable discography devoted to the Staatskapelle Dresden was again helpful. Further updating has been undertaken in addition to the generous assistance of Philip Stuart via his LSO discography which he compiled for the Orchestra’s centenary in 2004 and has kept updated. Inevitably there are a number of missing credits for producers and engineers in the earliest years as these facts no longer survive. Additionally some exact dates have not been tracked down.

  • 08 – Spinning the Record
    VII. THE DIGITAL ERA Sound moves out of grooves and into bytes With interest in classical music slowly but surely sinking, and interest in jazz over- whelmed by fusion and funk, the late 1970s and early 1980s saw a retraction and consolida- tion of labels interested in their promotion. The early model was the PolyGram Music Group, a rather friendly arrangement of European classical labels intended to group-market their product in an increasingly global economy. Philips, under its corporate name of Philips Phonografische Industrie (PPI), was the first to attempt such a conglomeration. They first proposed a merger with British Decca in 1945, but it was rejected by Decca’s Edward Lewis. In the early 1950s they proposed a mer- ger with DGG. This, too, was initially rejected. Where PPI succeeded was with American Columbia. In 1951, after Columbia did not renew its international distribution agreement with EMI, PPI agreed to distribute Columbia recordings outside the US and have Columbia distribute its recordings inside the US. This agreement ran until 1961, when Columbia set up its own European network and PPI set out to make acquisitions in the US. But PPI continued to grow by building or buying factories in smaller countries. In 1962, PPI had a large factory in Baarn and factories in France, Britain, Denmark, Norway, Spain, Italy, Egypt, Nigeria and Brazil. That same year, they finally got DGG to agree to a merger whereby each label would manufacture each others' records, coordinate releases and not poach each others' artists or bid against each other for new talent.
