The Jukebox EP ( also known as a Little LP (LLP), Jukebox LP, Mini LP or Compact 33) was a 7-inch vinyl record with up to three songs on each side, that played at 33 ⅓ rpm in stereo, and had a small center hole. They were first introduced by Cadence Records in late 1961. The Jukebox EP became more popular whenit was picked up by Seeburg for use in their new jukebox\'s in September 1962. The Seeburg version of the Little LP was in stereo, came with title strips, and had a color cover for display in the jukebox. A number of record companies signed up in the beginning, and by 1963 there were 233 titles available with over 1,000 by 1966. Little LPs were also made for other jukebox manufacturers such as Wurlitzer, Rock-Ola and ATI.

Little LPs were essentially cut-down versions of the full12-inch LP, and shared the same artwork.What made them EP-like was that some songs were omitted for time purposes, and the tracks deemed the most popular were left on. Unlike most EPs before them, and most seven-inch vinyl in general (pre-1970s), these were issued instereo. While occasionally found at retail, distribution of Jukebox EP\'s was primarily through \"One Stop\" Jukebox operators and as a result - production of each title was extremely limited when compared to the actual 12\" version. While many of these \"pieces of history\" have survived over the years, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find a complete version of a title which would include the record, cover, title strips and mini photos (these were made for remote wall boxes - often used in dinners).

Sadly, by 1969, output of Little LPs had dropped sharply. A couple of small manufacturers revived the format in the early 1970s, but only a few titles per year were released in the period 1970-1975. Seeburg introduced new jukeboxes that didn’t play Little LPs in 1971, and the introduction of quadraphonic Little LPs didn’t make any difference as there were very few quadraphonic jukeboxes to play them on.

I consider the Jukebox EP to be the Ultimate \"Promo\" since it was authorized and licensed by both the artist and label, yet was manufactured and distributed by a third party. In addition, quantities made of these items were much smaller than the original 12\" version - usually 5,000 - 7,000 copies at it\'s height and closer to 1,000 units at the end in the mid 1970\'s.

Issued in 19652 on Riverside Records, The Ernest Maxin Orchestra - Great Themes from Great Movies.

This copy is a perfect 10 ! Original bag style seal is complete with no breaks. This record looks like it was pressed yesterday - not 55 years ago. Included with this rare record are the title strips (still attached with header & footer) as well as the mini photos of the album cover. This is a perfect example of what a Jukebox EP should be. These Jukebox EP\'s are wonderful pieces of American history and still highly collectible today - almost 60 years after their debut. Finally, these EP\'s are nearly impossible to find in this condition.

This extremely rare jukebox ep is being sold from one collector to another. No rights are given or implied.

If you have any questions or would like more information, do not hesitate to ask.

Good luck, and thanks for looking!
