EURODISK
The label of publishing
company Eurodisk Music. Eurodisk appears to have managed just a couple of
releases: a double album featuring material from a musical called 'The Barrier'
and a single featuring a couple of tracks taken from it. The 'A' side of
the single offered Elaine Paige singing 'Ireland', while on the 'B' she was
joined by Peter Oliver for 'We're Only Flesh And Blood'. Its catalogue
number was WHS-101, reflecting the initials of producer William
Horvers, and it came out in June 1978, with the double album (WH-1001
/ 1002) following shortly after. There was no label name on the
labels of either, but the rear of the LP cover gave it as Eurodisk and 'Music
Master' for 1979 did likewise. Oddly 'MM' didn't mention the single; it
was however listed in the 'The New Singles' leaflet at the time.
Distribution was by Selecta. Both the double album and the single were
reissued in July 1980; they kept their original catalogue numbers but the single
came out on a new label, 'Inspiration', and the references to Eurodisk Records
on the album sleeve were covered up with 'Inspiration' stickers. For
the 1980 release, distribution was handled by Spartan and Pinnacle.
