Music Of The Twentieth Century

Series of Australian LPs issued in 1966 and 1967. These were all LPs originally issued by The Record Society, now issued by the parent company, World Record Club — however, the Record Society catalogue numbers were retained, along with the Record Society labels. "Music Of The 20th Century" mainly appeared in WRC club literature, and not necessarily on the LPs themselves — the defining feature of the series was the new artwork, featuring distinctive sketches of the composers drawn by Louis Kahan. The 1966 LPs may have the earlier style of Record Society labels, with 1967 versions featuring the newer brown 'herald' design (but this is as yet unconfirmed).
