AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features the original cover art for Gilbert Montagné's single, released under the CBS label (reference CBS 7315). The visible side of the cover showcases a black and white portrait of the singer, photographed in profile, wearing dark glasses and seated in front of a piano. The entire cover has a sober aesthetic, typical of late 1970s music productions, with high-contrast visuals and a clean graphic layout.

The name "GILBERT MONTAGNÉ" is inscribed in large white letters at the top of the cover, followed by the details of the two tracks on the record: "THE FOOL" and "HIDE AWAY", both positioned to the left, below the CBS logo and reference 7315. The CBS label logo is clearly visible, as is a second triangular logo on the right, indicating a contemporary French edition.

The cover displays shades of gray and black, with an accentuated lighting effect on the piano keys and the artist's face. The photograph covers almost the entire surface, giving the object a decidedly vintage and retro look, particularly sought after for decoration or old vinyl collections.

The record itself is not visible in the photo; only the front cover is shown. No details about the condition of the vinyl are observable from this image. The cover appears to be in correct condition, with slight signs of wear visible on the edges, but no major tears or apparent stains on the front.

This 45 rpm vinyl record is a testament to the French music scene of the 70s, and more specifically to Gilbert Montagné's international success with the track "The Fool," which remains one of his most iconic songs.
