Limelight

Profile:Daughter of Mercury, inaugurated to commission jazz works by well-known artists as Dizzy Gillespie, Oscar Peterson, Art Blakey, Milt Jackson etc... They also set a new standard in packiging, trying to expand the concept of the record cover with hitherto unseen constructions, many of these designed by Daniel Czubak (releases 86001-86046).

The policy changed abruptly to electronic and avant-garde music from LS 86047 onward. This was also expressed by a change in label design (see scans). The last few releases tried to incorporate rock within the electronics strategy to at times pretty erratic results.
