AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This audio cassette, visible in the photo, is a K7 format music medium, typical of the 1980s-1990s, released under the Festival label (reference 401074). The front cover features a colorful visual dominated by purple and red tones, with a large fan and stylized floral motif, evoking the world of tango and Hispanic dances. The main titles are inscribed in white and yellow letters, with the mention "24 Famous Tangos and Pasos" and the names of the performers: Luis Machaco, Leo Vidal, and Mario Melfi. A yellow band at the top left indicates "2 double duration 33 rpm records", although the object in question is an audio cassette (the indication refers to the vinyl version of the same compilation).

The visible side of the transparent plastic case shows the inserted cover, with no apparent cracks or deformation on the front. The title, artists, and some featured tracks are clearly legible: "Adios muchachos, Hoy, Espana cani, Alma Andalucia, Come te quiero, Mi dolor, La cumparsita, etc.". The whole evokes a retro compilation of famous tangos and paso-dobles, intended for lovers of atmospheric dance music, typical of the vintage era.

The case is a standard audio cassette case, with a smooth and shiny finish, the cover being inserted under plastic. No details of the back, edges, or the cassette itself are visible in this image.

The general presentation and the "vintage" mention in the keywords suggest an 80s edition, a period when this type of compilation was common in popular music sections, especially in K7 audio formats for portable players or car radios.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The front of the case and the visible cover appear to be in good visual condition, with no major defects apparent in the photographed area. No other side or the cassette itself is visible, so the overall condition cannot be guaranteed beyond the side shown.

Did you know? The audio cassette (K7) format, launched in the late 1960s, reached its peak in the 1980s, becoming the preferred medium for popular music and thematic compilations. Cassettes allowed for nomadic listening, especially with the arrival of the Walkman in 1979, and profoundly marked the history of recorded music before the advent of the CD.
