Annotation

Legacy Recordings, the Grammy Award-winning catalog division of Sony Music, is charged with the task of revisiting, restoring, reintroducing and enhancing one of the world's greatest music catalogs (over 100 years deep!)

Legacy - Catalog Naming Convention: (work in progress)

CK's (Columbia Legacy) reissues

CK xxxxx - Typical catalog # beginning with letters "CK" a space and 5 digit number
CxK xxxxx - Found on multi disc sets where "x" between C&K is a numeral & number of discs
CSK xxxxx - Found on promotional releases.

EK's (Epic Legacy) reissues

EK xxxxx - Typical catalog # beginning with letters "EK" a space and 5 digit number

EK's (Elektra) reissues ?? (needs verification if belongs)

EK xxxxx -

* I see the Sony Music Store has yet another version of the Columbia/Legacy catalog numbering and appears to prepend a "1". (ie.. 1CKxxxxx, 1C2Kxxxxx)

Unless otherwise noted/known, Please revert these to the above standard system

Legacy Recordings is an American record label that is a division of Sony Music. Formed in 1990 after Sony's acquisition of CBS Records, Legacy originally handled the archives of Sony Music-owned labels Columbia Records and Epic Records. In 2004, under the Sony BMG joint venture, the label began to manage the archives of RCA Records, J Records, Windham Hill Records, Arista, LaFace, Jive, and Buddah Records. Legacy Recordings also distributes Philadelphia International Records and the catalog of recordings produced by Phil Spector. It is not related to the defunct British independent label Legacy Records.
