[78-L] German labels

[David Lennick]

One interesting and lingering effect was that Odeon and Parlophone material 
eventually appeared simultaneously on US Columbia and Decca in the 1930s. 
Another was that the jazz sides produced in New York for Parlophone eventually 
came out on Decca 78s in the early 40s and Capitol LPs in the 60s.
