1180.0. "Polygram Classical Labels" by DEBIT::NEWMAN (This is one of my lucid moments.) Wed May 04 1988 09:21
Can anyone explain or describe the "Polygram Classical Labels (POC)"
designation that appears in the Noteworthy catalogue? In going through
that catalogue last night, I noticed (much to my delight) that some of
the entries that are labelled POC are disks under labels such as: DGG,
London and Phillips.
I also noticed that POC entries (at least) seem to share a common
number scheme of the form 4xxxxx.2, which would seem to be the same
"part number" that DGG, et. al. use. Is this numbering scheme some
kind of standard, or is it just a convention used by the labels
that fall under the POC "umbrella" label (if that is what it is).

| I'm not sure if Polygram is the company that owns the various
labels or a distributor for them. Some of the companies and
guesses about their corresponding countries are:
DGG - Germany
Archiv - Germany? - Baroque and earlier music.
Philips - The Netherlands.
London - England
Argo - England
L'Oiseau-Lyre - ? - Similiar period as Archiv
Mercury - ?
Decca - England
Threshold - ? - Most of the Moody Blues music is on this
label.
There are many others.
