I have no idea where to put this. I've been trying to find out what the blue Charisma label is or signifies I know it's generally for reissues but not all reissues are.on it. When did it first appear? Does anyone know?
The Blue Famous Charisma Label.
-
The blue Charisma label first appeared in the UK in 1979 and was used for nearly all Charisma releases where paper labels were used. As time strolled into the 1980s Charisma embarked on a significant reissue program and so naturally the blue labels are associated with reissues but it was really just the Charisma label design from 1979 to around 1986 when the label fell into disuse.
Bear in mind that Virgin took over the manufacture and distribution of Charisma in around 1983, thus securing pretty well all Genesis related acts to go with their star signing, Phil Collins.
