EmArcy EMS Series

[EmArcy EMS Logo]

Preceded by the original EmArcy Series ( 16000 Series: 7-inch single, 26000 Series: 10-inch, 36000 Series: 12-inch ), and EmArcy MGE/SRE Series which was active in the very short period in the middle 1960s ( 26000/66000 Series ), EmArcy label was reborn in 1976, under the name of “The EmArcy Jazz Series”. This series consists of compilations of past EmArcy/Mercury recordings. Some titles feature scarce tracks (previously released only on 78rpms/45rpms) as well as previously-unreleased tracks. It's a nice and comprehensive series which introduces great Jazz recordings on EmArcy and Mercury labels.

By the way, Blue Note was releasing the previously-unreleased recordings (by Michael Cuscuna) under “Blue Note Re-Issue Series” project in the middle 1970s. I guess this EmArcy EMS series was probably started under the influence of Michael Cuscuna works on Blue Note.
