CBC Radio Canada LM Series

CBC Radio Canada LM Series

A cornerstone of Canadian recorded history, the CBC LM Series stands as a testament to the nation's cultural and musical legacy. Pressed in limited quantities for internal distribution to CBC radio stations, these rare singles and LPs captured live broadcasts, commissioned works, and studio sessions spanning classical, jazz, folk, experimental, Indigenous, and multicultural sounds. Issued primarily throughout the 1960s to 1980s, each slab is a sonic time capsule—showcasing the depth, diversity, and artistry nurtured by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. With 243 titles catalogued here (at Mar 7, 2026), this collection offers an unparalleled glimpse into Canada’s musical soul.
