Vinyl 45 rpm Buggles Video Killed the Radio Star vintage retro

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

45 RPM vinyl record presented with its original sleeve, illustrating the famous track "Video Killed the Radio Star" by the group Buggles. The sleeve, clearly visible in the photo, displays a graphic design typical of the late 1970s with stylized portraits in flat colors and horizontal lines evoking a retro television effect. The two members of the group are depicted in pale yellow shirts and green ties, against a background of gray and white graphic patterns.

In the upper left, a red rosette indicates "n°1 en ANGLETERRE" (No. 1 in ENGLAND), highlighting the success of the track upon its release. The mention "VERSION ORIGINALE" (ORIGINAL VERSION) appears under the group's name "BUGGLES" in clear gold lettering. The track title "video killed the radio star" is inscribed in white, in bold characters, in the center of the sleeve. In the lower right is the Island Records label logo, characteristic of original editions from this period.

The sleeve presents a distinct retro appearance, with slightly curved edges and visible signs of wear on the upper part and corners, testifying to prolonged handling and storage. The colors remain vibrant despite the effect of time, with a sharp contrast between the graphic elements and the background. No other accessory or record is visible in the photo; only the front of the sleeve is shown.

The visual, typical of the new wave and synth-pop era of the late 1970s, is consistent with the graphic aesthetic of the time: bold colors, clean lines, and a stylized rendering. This design echoes the visual world of early music videos, in line with the song's theme.
