Any comments, corrections or additions to this discography are appreciated.
Example: The matrix information, 7XCA 27877-1 G 1, found on side one of the Columbia Records pressing of The Piper at the Gates of Dawn indicates:
Stampers are made from the Mothers. Mothers are made from the lacquers. And the lacquers are cut from the master tapes.
Stamper Codes: The stamper codes used by Columbia/EMI Records is based on "Gramophone Ltd." and are as follows:
Example: A record with a "G" stamper letter indicates that the record was made from the first stamper. Later pressings may have stamper numbers in combination, such as "AL" which means 38.

Test Pressing: A white label Microgroove test pressing was made with the matrix: 7XCA 30214-1 HR 13 KT / 7XCA 30215-1 HG 3 KT (both stamped). Columbia Records introduced the 1-mil groove for its LP records in 1948, which became the industry standard for LPs until they converted to a .7-mil groove for stereo LPs in late 1958. This unique test pressing single was cut using the original 1 mil microgroove.
