Dawn

As there were several label designs during the output 1970~1976, each LP listed here has been signified as:

or = orange with small logo at 12o'clock (1st); pu = purple with small logo at 9 o'clock
(2nd); sr = semi-circle sunrise logo with light colour label (3rd ~ depicted foot of this page).
This information is of interest to the labelologists / collector of variants, as is...

Circa 1970 ~ 1975, PYE Records issued their albums employing three different shades of vinyl: black, brown, and red, with brown and (wine) red being evident only as such when the disc is held up to a strong light. This can be found on PYE's subsidiary labels, such as Casablanca, Dawn, and DJM. As far as I am aware, the Dawn label LPs exists only with either black or red vinyl. So for the completeist, also within the listing below, it is indicated on each issue as to the vinyl's colour: bl v = black; wr v = wine red. Please note that this observation is not to be confused with albums that are apparent as 'coloured vinyl' on first glance; yellow "Yellow Brick Road" or red Kiss LP's being good examples. Anyway, these were issued post 1976. Still awake?....

All the records listed on this page have been professionally cleaned.
The sleeves are non-gatefold, and of matte card, unless stated otherwise. Non-UK pressings denoted.
