Mercury 20000 シリーズ A (20500-20599)
20000番台は,1950年代初期にスタートした, Mercury レーベルの 12インチ LP 用のシリーズです. このシリーズでは,クラシック以外のあらゆる音楽ジャンル (ポピュラー,イージーリスニング,フォーク,ラテン, ロック,ジャズ,R&B, その他なんでも) がリリースされました.
モノーラル 盤は,MG-20000 番から開始して番号順に リリースされました. ステレオ は 1958年からリリースが開始されましたが, モノーラル盤とは異なりカタログ番号は不規則に振られました. これは,ステレオ盤とモノーラル盤が同時にリリースされていなかったからです. ほとんどのアルバムでは,まずモノーラル盤が番号順にリリースされ, その中でステレオミックスされたものがアットランダムにステレオ盤として リリースされた様です.
ステレオ盤のリリースが開始される前に,既にステレオ録音用機材が レコード会社に行き渡っていたのは幸いなことでした. ちなみに Mercury では 1954年頃からステレオ実験録音を開始していました. ですので,ステレオ盤リリースが開始する前の録音でも, ステレオミックスが可能で,後にステレオ盤がリリースされたものがある訳です.
注意: ここでは,便宜上 Mercury 20000 シリーズを シリーズ A (MG-20000 から MG-20599 まで), シリーズ B (MG-20600 より後) の 2つに分けています.
