LABEL STYLES - ALBUMS
AXIS
AXIS
Axis Records commenced operations in May 1972 as EMI (Australia)'s budget priced record label, specialising in the reissue of recordings from the EMI back-catalogue.
Four Beatles titles were released on the Axis imprint: Rock 'N' Roll Music Volume 1; Rock 'N' Roll Music Volume 2 (both in 1981, 1982 and again in 1987); A Collection of Beatles Oldies (1985); and At The Hollywood Bowl (1990).
Two basic label styles existed in the Axis range: the first is a black and white label used up until March 1982, and the second is a single yellow label used after the label rebranded itself in April 1982. In the case of the latter style, albums were issued by both EMI (Australia) and the EMI Music Group Australasia (from July 1987) with the rim print updated accordingly.
Only one label pair per title is displayed on this page. Label variations for a given record can be found on its corresponding LP page (accessible via the main 'LPs' menu, above).
