PHILIPS RECORDS 1967 PHS 600-245
in 1961-1962, Dutch Company Philips signed an exchange agreement
with Mercury (and subsequently Philips bought Mercury).
This Philips Series were introduced in the U.S. in that period.
Although some of the titles are U.S. releases of original
Dutch (and other European) Philips recordings, many titles
are also original U.S. recordings, so we can regard this
series as one of the subsidiary labels of Mercury Records.
As a matter of fact, there are some recordings which
was originally planned to be released under EmArcy
or Mercury, but transfered to this Philips label. And there
is even an interesting example which was originally
planned to be released under Philips label,
but transfered to Limelight label.
Catalogue numbers for this series have PHM
(Monaural) and PHS (Stereo) prefix.
