The complete Apple Records

Introduction

	Apple Records is the name of the record company that has been established by The Beatles in 1968. In the United Kingdom as a division of Parlophone Records (EMI) as 'Apple Records Ltd.' and in the United States as a division of Capitol Records as 'Apple Records Inc.'. The following artists released their material thru Apple Records: Badfinger, Bill Elliot & Elastic Oz Band, Billy Preston, Black Dyke Mills Band, Chris Hodge, David Peel & The Lower East Side, Doris Troy, Elephant's Memory, George Harrison, Hot Chocolate (Band), Jackie Lomax, James Taylor, John Lennon, John Tavener, Lon & Derrek van Eaton, Mary Hopkin, Modern Jazz Quartet, Paul McCartney, Ravi Shankar, Ringo Starr, Ronnie Spector, The Beatles, The Iveys, The Plastic Ono Band, The Radha Krsna Temple (London), The Sundown Playboys, (White) Trash, Wings and Yoko Ono. The Beatles as a group released their records on Apple Records, but they were still under contract by Parlophone and Capitol. That is why their catalogue numbers are different from the other Apple artists. The same goes for the solo recordings of George Harrison, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr that have been released in the United Kingdom and in Europe. The catalogue numbers of their solo recordings that have been released in the United Stats are in the same series of the other Apple artists. The goal for this website is to offer you the complete summary of every recording that has been released world wide on Apple Records since 1968. You can explore the releases on vinyl, cassette tape, 8-track tape, Compact Disc, Super Audio CD, DVD-audio, VHS and DVD-video. In the vinyl department each index presents all releases for a particular country and, if relevant, the comparable release in the United Kingdom and the United States. Almost every catalogue number in the index is a hyperlink to a page where you can see the detail information of the release: the catalogue number, the date of release, the performing artist or group, the sleeve (front and back), the label (front and back), the song titles, the composer(s), the producer(s) and the running times. In addition the complete catalogues of The Beatles, George Harrison (including the Traveling Wilburys), John Lennon (including the Plastic Ono Band and Yoko Ono), Paul McCartney (including Wings and Linda McCartney), Ringo Starr (including his All-Starr Bands), Dark Horse Records and Ring O'Records have recently been added. If you click HERE you will find hyperlinks for exploring related websites.
	For this website I used my own collection of vinyl discs, Compact Cassettes, 8-track Cartridges, Compact Discs, VHS tapes, and DVD discs. Unfortunately not all items are in my collection. Therefore I sometimes used material from the WEES sites and 'The Apple Sleevographia' website. I want to thank the webmasters for their contribution. I also used material that was send to me by e-mail, so I want to thank all senders for their contributions. Especially I want to thank Ferran Vallejo from Spain for his contribution concerning the Spanish releases, Richard Davis from England for his contribution concerning the British releases, Bastiaan van Kasteel from Belgium for his contribution concerning the Belgian, French and Portugese releases and Achim Helge Winkelmeier from Germany for his contribution concerning the German releases.
