Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features an illustrated cover typical of 1960s French productions, with a colorful theatrical scene on the front. The visual shows four characters in action, including two women in dresses and pearl necklaces, a man in a suit, and another woman seated, all against a background of a blue curtain and floral tapestry. The main inscriptions on the cover indicate the titles "HEY! BABY!" and "LES COMÉDIENS", performed by R. Falgayrac with the orchestra under the direction of Claude Vasori. The label name, "Panorama Super", appears in yellow at the bottom left. The graphic presentation, typography, and staging strongly suggest a French production from the 60s, oriented towards variety and entertainment.

The record also mentions "MADISON - SONNE" and "JACK' MADISON", suggesting a repertoire of popular dances from the early 1960s. The dominant colors of the cover are blue, black, red, and yellow, with a dynamic layout. The cover shows marked creases, visible wear on the edges, including a missing bottom right corner, typical of items that have passed through several decades.

The inscriptions are clearly legible: "HEY! BABY!", "LES COMÉDIENS", "R. FALGAYRAC", "Orchestre Direction CLAUDE VASORI", "MADISON - SONNE", "JACK' MADISON". The number at the top right ("17.35") could correspond to a catalog or series reference.

This 45 rpm (single) is a classic medium for retro music lovers, appreciated for its compact format and illustrated cover. The "Panorama Super" label was known at the time for producing variety and dance records.
