  Odeon Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Odeon was a record label founded by Max Strauss and Heinrich Zunz in Berlin, Germany.
It was named after a famous theatre in Paris, whose classical dome appears on the Odeon record label.
In 1936 the director of the Odeon branch was forced to retire and replaced by Dr Kepler, a Nazi party member.

 ODEON RECORDS IN AMERICA
Although German-made Odeon records were occasionally exported to the United States on special order, there does not seem to have been any serious attempt to market the label here before the early 1920s.
Odeon was retained as a classical and foreign-language sideline and was credited to the Okeh Phonograph Corporation, of which Heineman retained the presidency.
Decca reissued old Odeon classical material (some of it dating to the late 1920s) in some quantity, but its cheap pressings were a far cry from the glossy, laminated Odeons of a decade earlier.

 Inglese Dischi Giapponesi
All the original Japanese albums manufactured by Odeon Records before 1971 (from "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" to "Meddle")were printed in Japan -as well as the traditional fl vinyl editions- in a dark red colour edition ("low noise") carrying in some occasion a special limited edition white label.
Another quite strange thing about Japanese ruby-red records, is that the Beatles's early red discs (before 1965) bore a Odeon's fl label slightly different from the ones that followed: in the lower part, in fact, they show the inscription "LONG PLAYING" (right under the titles) with no mention of EMI at all.
The meaning of this numbers, contrary to all that people asserting this is the number of the edition (for instance the 4th copy of 23 or the 8th out of 16) is indeed just the date of release, in these cases the 23rd of April and the 16th of August.

 Odeon Records
Odeon's early success was attributable to two main factors: first, they were aggressive worldwide marketers, with operational bases throughout Europe, South America and the Far East; and second, they had launched, early in 1904, the first double-sided records.
Odeon's first Indian recordings were made in late 1906 on a grand tour that took the engineers from Calcutta to Benares, then on to Lucknow, Cawnpore, Delhi, Amritsar, Lahore, Bombay and finally back to Calcutta.
Their recorder visited Lourenço Marques and Beira last year and sessions were held in both towns at which records were made of all the principal languages.

So, Octocros records were made specially for use in cinemas only, and were produced for Synchrophone Ltd. These records first appeared in 1934, using old masters from the defunct Piccadilly label, issued anonymously on an orange and white label (similar design to the later blue one shown right) with a 30-digit catalogue number.
Recordings were mainly American, from Melotone and later ARC and Decca, but there were a few home-grown recordings, mainly done by Levy's specially for the label, then subsequently by Decca, again exclusively for Panachord, though one or two were also released on Decca as well.
One of the many tiny records available in the early 1920s, "Pigmy Gramophone", as they were styled, were 5½" in diameter and were pressed by Crystallate, using the same masters as their "Mimosa" records of the period.

While in London, Parlophone Records (the English sister label to Odeon) invited him to record several tunes in their studios including "Bésame Mucho", a "bolero" that had many interpreters since the 1940's but which achieved its definite consagration in Lucho's voice...
He recorded extensibly during the 60's, 70s and 80's and he continued performing all over the world winning audiences as far apart as the Middle East and Japan.
He was and is the "King" and audiences never tired of listening to his records, attending his concerts or catching him at a guest appearance on television.

 Christmas: Orbi, Novenas and Litanies
That repertoire, which was recorded before the beginning of the activities of ethno-musicological research in Italy, constitutes the only documentary source that we can refer to in the study of the traditional music from the first half of the 20th century.
Many of these recordings, even if made without ever meaning to become ethno-musical documentaries but made exclusively for commercial purposes, remain the only direct testimony of the art of the singers and the players, so their documentary and musical value is enormous.
The 78 rpm record production on themes that are generically of a Yuletide spirit is rather large: all the record companies operating in Italy until the 1950s actually believed it was important to provide a product in their catalogues that was sellable and much in demand.

 The Hindu : A RECORD of records
The earliest recording made in India was that of Gauhar Jan, a Hindustani vocalist, in the year 1902.
This is probably an earlier record of the Gramophone Company re-issued under the Twin label, because the artiste announces his name, a practice not in vogue in the 1920s.
A cutcheri set was a set of six records that followed the concert pattern and would have a varnam, a few kritis with alapana and swaras, an RTP, tani avartanam, a virutham, a javali, and mangalam.

Record company logo in the upper right corner of the sleeve is blurry.
These counterfeits, which have been found both with and without a picture sleeve, are believed to have originated from the Northeast U.S. in the mid-1980s, and were likely produced by the same people who counterfeited the John Lennon Cold Turkey picture sleeve, and the Beatles Why sleeve on MGM.
This record was released almost one year ago in England and made Top 5.

 Marston - The Complete César Vezzani
All church records, legal records, even inscriptions on public buildings were in Italian for years.
It is a small role, but has one great aria—an aria that Vezzani recorded twice, once on the Odeon label (CD 1, Track 9), and again on HMV (CD 2, Track 13).
It is difficult to say when Vezzani attained stardom–he had certainly made numerous acoustic records for Odeon as early as 1913 and many others for French HMV during the ensuing years, but (except for his two earlier Marseille seasons) did not really start singing regularly in the most important French theaters outside Paris until 1925.

 EMI
On December 15, 2005, Apple Records, the record label representing The Beatles, launched a suit against EMI for non-payment of royalties.
An EMI spokesman noted that audits of record label accounts are not unusual, confirming at least two hundred such audits have been performed, but that they rarely result in legal action[1].
Along with the estimated $20 million advance she received, this is the highest amount a record label has ever paid an artist for a single album.

 OPERA DISC RECORDS - Victor, Deutsche Gramophone, and the Opera Disc Saga
In 1921, the General Phonograph Corporation, makers of Okeh and American Odeon records, began to reissue decade-old Odeon and Fonotipia masters recorded in Europe by John McCormack and other performers who had since signed exclusive Victor contracts in the United States.
In 1919 John Fletcher's Operaphone Company had introduced its Symphony Concert Record which, suspiciously enough, used a label design identical to that of to a pre-1914 German-produced export label of the same name.
Fletcher pressed the records at his Long Island City plant (the same plant in which Black Swan discs were pressed), and they show the Fletcher plant's characteristic label typography and sunken ring around the spindle hole.

Best known for his work within straightahead classic jazz--from early apprenticeships with the Lionel Hampton and Quincy Jones bands through today's collaborations with Wynton Marsalis--Ted Nash has used his Odeon projects to show another, more outward looking and, some might say, more interesting and innovative aspect of his musical interests.
With Odeon, Nash weaves tango (and a dash of East European street music) into the New Orleans to Lincoln Center straightahead tradition to create an inventive, lyrical, and frequently playful concoction which is practically guaranteed to give you a sunnier outlook on the day ahead.
We like smiles, and La Espada De La Noche, Odeon's second album after '01's Sidewalk Meeting, is a delight from start to finish, thoughtfully and gorgeously arranged and infectiously performed, as much fun to listen to as it must have been to conceive.

fans not familiar with idlewild's older work might be taken aback by the style of this record; most noteably, singer roddy woomble's vocal tactics are very different from those he adapted in on later albums.
Idlewild's new record 'The Remote Part' is very pleasant, and a very accomplished record.
