Item Description

Compilation Remastered Stereo

Complete title:
Philips - Original Jackets Collection
55 Iconic Albums From The Philips Classics Label
Obsessed With Sound

This compilation ℗ 2012 Decca Music Group Limited
© 2012 Decca Music Group Limited
Made in the EU.

Packaged in a cardboard double-lift box, with CDs in cardboard sleeves replicating the original releases.
Each CD comes in a cardboard sleeve that replicates the original cover of one of the albums whose tracks are on the disc, if there is more than on. They do not describe the contents of the disc, which are printed on the back of the sleeve and in the booklet. Tracklist entries are a combination of the two.

Editor's Note 1: | character used to separate parts or acts that would ordinarily call for a Header, but is not used here, to keep complete works under a single Index Track.
Editor's Note 2: Many releases by Philips do not provide complete recording and production data.

All releases originally on Philips.
