Ok now I know that when Quincy Jones' blockbuster album The Dude came out the red A&M label had already started being used like for The Carpenters Made in America album. The 45's from the Dude were the red label and yet the white label with the large A and M brown letters were used on the LP. Don't believe me, check eBay. All LP's have the white label and the 45's have the red label. Does anyone know what happened? I personally never cared for the red label and liked the white one.
