A WORD ABOUT THE PREFIXES Most, if not all, of the original Gold Bordered releases listed below, as well as those without borders, released from 1972-1974 did not have the "P" price code prefix printed on the jackets. In 1974, when Columbia increased the list price on thier LP product, the CQ, EQ, and ZQ prefixes for single LPs became PCQ, PEQ, and PZQ respectively. To reflect this price increase on the older stock that had yet to ship, and to save the cost of reprinting jacket graphics, stickers with the new catalog number were printed and affixed to the jackets (see graphic above). The labels remained with the original catalog number. Consequently, some collectors will have a specific LP with a CQ number, while another will have the PCQ number. The only difference being the price that was originally charged for the reocrd. |
