Meaning of ep

Answer 1

The phrase "EP" as it relates to the music industry stands for "Extended Play." EP's are typically short (4 to five songs) debut albums that are released by new bands wishing to have their original tracks heard.

Answer 2

The question appears to be contradictory.

Album would normally be associated with LP = Long Playing Record.

EP = Extended Play Record (would normally have 2 tracks per side).

Hope that helps.
