e.f.s.a. collection

French label who released 100 Jazz CDs, both album reissues and compilations. e.f.s.a. collection has to be entered as LABEL, usually (*) with first cat. # = JZxxx as on CD, back cover and back insert, and second cat. # = "CDxxx" as on CD rim text (JZ025 and CD025 for Stan Kenton, JZ061 and CD061 for Chick Corea, ...) The SERIES is Jazz Masters - 100 Ans De Jazz or Jazz Masters (9), depending on logo on top of front cover of the release, with or without subtitle "100 Ans de Jazz" . Mandarim Records, Ltd. stated on back cover and back insert with its adress in Dublin, Ireland, is NOT the label of those releases, it has to be entered as RECORD COMPANY with cat. # = 'MR-0xxxx' as stated on CD. And usually also as © Material is licensed from Start Audio & Video , Cascade GmbH , Red Record or under license of ... the owner, sometimes also ℗ The Kruger Organisation, Inc. e.f.s.a. stands probably for 'editions folio s.a.' or 'ediciones folio s.a.' as (grand) parent label Ediciones Folio, S.A. Releases were initially issued 1997-1998 and distributed in France by Messageries Lyonnaises de Presse through newsstands into a bundle which included a leaflet and 2 CDs (JZ001 Miles Davis and JZ002 Pat Metheny, JZ003 Billie Holiday and JZ004 Stan Getz, ... JZ099 Bobby Watson and JZ100 Ray Mantilla). Later, they were sold as single CD in discount stores in France and in different European countries (Netherlands, Italy, ...). Hence, country = 'Europe' for all those releases look better, even if Series Jazz Masters - 100 Ans De Jazz has liner notes in French and Series Jazz Masters (9) has them in Dutch. Releases on Jazz Masters - 100 Ans De Jazz may have "sisters" with same music and slightly different cover (front cover and spine without "100 Ans de Jazz", liner notes in Dutch) on Series Jazz Masters (9) . They have to be in the same master release. And most releases on Jazz Masters - 100 Ans De Jazz have Spanish "cousins" with same music and slightly different cover, issued on label Folio Collection through Series The Jazz Masters - 100 Años de Swing . They have also to be in the same master release. Otherwise, label e.f.s.a. has issued classical music releases through Series Les Chefs-D'Œuvre De L'Histoire De La Musique All linked to parent (or grand parent) label Ediciones Folio, S.A. (*): Notes about inconsistency of the numbering. A couple of releases of Series Jazz Masters (9) have cat # = 'JZxxx' on back cover and back booklet which is different from cat # = 'JZyyy' stated on CD. Thanks to enter this 'JZyyy' on CD as first cat # of e.f.s.a. collection , it's same as cat # on Jazz Masters - 100 Ans De Jazz release for same artist. A couple of releases have neither "JZxxx" nor "CDxxx" cat #, please enter label e.f.s.a. collection with cat. # = none and MR-0xxxx as cat. # of Record Company Mandarim Records, Ltd. as for other releases. It's indeed "e.f.s.a. CDxxx" which is stated on CD rim text but, to avoid confusions with numbering of e.f.s.a. releases, please enter "CDxxx" as cat. # of label e.f.s.a. collection See https://www.discogs.com/forum/thread/726233 for discussion.
