[Musique Pour L'Image]
« on: October 01, 2022, 11:47:12 AM »



I've been able to retrieve this post from Wayback Machine.
It was not complete, but I think I re-constructed it quite alright.
It is worth re-publishing it, cause it's a great label to showcase.

Here part of the original comment, with some updates:

It's always been one of my favorite labels ever. Brilliant records, wonderful covers, a special charm overall, indeed!
Really important French label, based in Paris, started by pianist and jazz composer Robert Viger in 1967.
Some of the releases were later re-issued by Sylvester UK.

The catalog is composed by 55 numbers total, starting by n.501 till n.555.
More specifically:
- 10" recordings from n.501 to n.523, 12" LP recordings from n.524 to n.555
- n. 503 is probably an exception, being a 7" mini-album with a slightly different catalog number. Not sure if a LP with n.503 (MPI LP 503) ever existed.
- n.530 and n.531 were published as a double LP (MPI LP 530-531)

Great cover graphics, mostly designed by Robert J. Hilton. All the covers were printed at J.Colombet, Paris XV.
Here below a patchwork of some of the famous and iconic covers.






Up-do-date list, after the latest finds and upgrades by fellow members contains: 40 flac, 10 mp3, 5 missing.
(Please, forgive me if I failed to remember some credits. Let me know, in the case)

This is also an attempt to complete the run, so, if anybody has any of the missing, or any upgrade to lossless, please consider posting.
Let's see how far we can go.

What a fantastic share Greta.  I had around 4-5 of these as naff MP3's, so this massively helps.  I've also not listened to many of these albums before so this will keep me busy over the weekend.  Again, thanks for a massive upload there.

Is that list supposed to represent the content of the pixeldrain links? There are 12 files in the folder, but 40 in the list

There are two folders. One is for the FLAC albums and the second folder is for the MP3’s. The quality of the albums is in the main list. So, to be clear, some albums are FLAC and in that folder l.  Similarly, the albums as MP3 are in the MP4 folder, but 50 albums available in either format.

But he is right, if you check the green-labelled albums (FLAC) there are, without counting, more than in the Pixeldrain. Also, the MP3 folder is completely 404, so this list is just outdated and in need of some maintenance.

Thanks for this useful topic, Greta. I would like to state for the record that #505 is from De Wolfe's equivalent Lunar Probe, and is my rip. A similar quality rip of the actual MPI record would be welcome for comparison, of course.

I should probably give this another clean but not that bad | MPI/LP 541 - Energie (1972)

Thanks Greta for the original share. I can confirm that the FLAC link offers 12 albums but sadly the MP3 link is now dead. Thanks also to Retro for the 541 share.

As for the green-labelled albums, they were all there when I shared the link, but as time passed a good bunch of liks just expired (the ones with less downloads I guess).
Same thing for the mp3 ones, all expired.

Feel free to re-up them. My free time has been dramatically reduced lately, unfortunately.

Cheers.

Can anyone re-up MPI/LP 538 "Infini", please?

And does anyone else have these remaining albums:

MPI/LP 525 - Effets Courts Et Danses Variees
MPI/LP 526 - Guitares, Rythmes Et Guitares
MPI/LP 551 - Adagio For Automn

Thanks in advance!

No problem.  Can't help with the other 3.  As far as I'm aware. the three albums haven't been shared before.  Here is 538 and thanks to Greta for that...

MPI LP 538 - Fabio Fabor, Armando Sciascia - Infini (1972) [FLAC]
