What exactly is London/Decca

I'm hoping someone may enlighten me on what exactly a London/Decca "Phase 4" record is. At first, I thought it must be a quadraphonic record, but I've picked up a few and they aren't. Most seem to be from the late 60's. One came with a promotional insert that describes it as a "marvel of sound" (not particularly enlightening). Might anyone know what the difference is between a "Phase 4" London/Decca and any other non-Phase 4 London/Decca record? Tks.

Rushton - thanks so much for your fulsome response. I'm a classical enthusiast who is new to vinyl, so I'm fascinated about learning more about the classical labels, their histories, technical merits, etc. Have you found anything on the web or elsewhere that you have found insightful or interesting on this subject? Thanks again.

John
