Dot Album Discography, Part 7Dot, as most big labels, had several offshoot series that tried various things. Some of these only had
one album. The label was the same as the normal Dot labels.
Over the years, especially after the demise of Dot when it was vacuumed up by the MCA empire, there
have been many high quality reissues of Dot material. We have included selected albums and CDs in
the discography below.
We would appreciate any additions or corrections to this discography. Just send them to us via e-mail. Both Sides Now Publications is an
information web page. We are not a catalog, nor can we provide the records listed below. We have no
association with Dot Records, which is currently owned by Universal Music Group. Should you want to
contact Universal, or should you be interested in acquiring albums listed in this discography (which are
all out of print), we suggest you see our Frequently
Asked Questions page and follow the instructions found there. This story and discography are
