Buddah Album Discography, Part 1
5000 Series (1967-1973)

By Patrice Eyries, David Edwards, and Mike Callahan
Last update: October 21, 2005




The distribution for the Buddah label was done by Buddah Records themselves, and they distributed numerous other record labels as well : Kama Sutra after they departed from MGM distribution, Sussex, Curtom (Curtis Mayfield), T-Neck (the Isley Brothers), Charisma (UK " prog" label) as well as smaller subsidiaries like Pavillion, Super K, Southwind, National General, Brut and Eleuthera (in fact a Kama Sutra subsidiary).

The earliest Buddah label, used for the first few issues, is a stock red label with "BUDDAH RECORDS" in an arc around the bottom, identical to the later multi-color label but moved together without the statue silhouette.
This soon changed to the famous multicolored one with a black silhouette of a Shiva Indian statue (obviously not a Buddha!) at the bottom of the label between the words "BUDDAH" and "RECORDS" written in stylized black letters in the form of an arc. This label turned to a more yellow background (as opposed to the first one which was mostly purple and pink) at least for one album (BDS 5107).
Between BDS 5113 (the last album we know of that was originally issued with the "silhouette" label) and BDS 5114 (the first one we know that was originally issued with the brown label), the label changed to brown with a pink outside circle. "BUDDAH RECORDS" is still written in the form of an arc, but this time it is at the top the label in white capital letters, and the Shiva statue is replaced by a picture of a "real" Buddha statue centered in the bottom half of the label.


Later, there was also a slight change of color from "true" brown to a more "orange-red" brown (the first example we know is BDS 5124, but perhaps the two brown labels could have been used concurrently due to reprinting of label blanks for certain pressing plants where stock was depleted).

The brown label marks the appearance of the following text written in small (and mostly unreadable!) print in the form of an arc at the bottom of the label: "Manufactured and Distributed by Buddah Records Inc. 810 Seventh Ave., N.Y. 10019".

The Shiva silhouette label was used in Europe to the beginning of the 5600-5700 series. Some European issues have a black label with silver print, with the silhouette in silver.

Mono issues are known to exist at least as late as BDM-5018, although mono copies of albums after 5007 or so were pressed in smaller amounts than stereo, and are relatively harder to find. The last mono albums may have been pressed as promotional-only copies for AM radio stations.
