Vintage Clout Substitute 45 rpm vinyl record Carrere retro pop rock

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features the original cover of the single "Substitute" performed by the band Clout. On the front, there is a color photograph of the band in concert, with five members on stage, instruments in hand (electric guitars, bass, drums). The title "Substitute" appears prominently at the top of the cover, in a bold white and red typography typical of late 1970s pop-rock productions. The band's logo "clout", in thick white lowercase letters, is clearly visible at the bottom, accompanied by the Carrere logo, an iconic record label of that period.

The cover displays a dynamic visual, with bluish spotlights in the background and a stage effect that accurately conveys the live atmosphere. A blue sticker is affixed at the bottom right, indicating an old price in francs ("F12.70"). At the top right, the reference "49.350" is printed, which corresponds to the standard numbering of singles at Carrere. The mention "Produced by Grahame Beggs for Sunshine Record Productions" appears at the bottom left, attesting to the original production.

The record is presented in front of a bookshelf of old books, highlighting its vintage and retro character. The cover shows some visible signs of wear: creases, scuffed corners, slight handling marks. These signs are common for a used vinyl record from this era and attest to its circulation and authenticity.

The graphic style and photography, as well as the layout of the cover, are characteristic of the international pop-rock scene of the late 1970s. The choice of colors, the lettering, and the presence of the Carrere label reinforce the vintage identity sought by collectors of old vinyl records.

Condition

Used 45 rpm vinyl record, sold as is. The cover shows visible signs of wear: creases, scuffed corners, scratches, and small marks related to age and handling. The original price sticker is still present. The vinyl itself is not visible in the photo; therefore, the condition of the record cannot be described here.

Did you know? The track "Substitute," performed by Clout, was released in 1978 and achieved immense success in Europe, reaching number one on the charts in Germany, Switzerland, and South Africa. The band Clout, originally from South Africa, was one of the few all-female rock bands of that era to make a name for themselves on the international stage.
