Vinyl 7" Charles Aznavour On se réveillera vintage picture sleeve

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features a black and white close-up photograph of Charles Aznavour on its cover, with the artist striking an expressive pose, dressed in a dark, high-collared jacket. The sleeve highlights the main title "ON SE REVEILLERA" in orange capital letters and the name "CHARLES AZNAVOUR" in bright red, printed at the top of the visible side. The graphic style, typical of 1970s French productions, combines a strong image with impactful lettering to capture attention.

At the bottom left, the list of the two tracks is also in capital letters: "COMME ILS DISENT" (4:53), arranged by C. Gaubert, and "ON SE REVEILLERA" (2:43), arranged by Y. Jullien. The credits mention recording at Barclay studio in Paris, under the artistic direction of R. Marsan, with a photograph signed by Pietro Pascuttini. The layout and quality of the photograph reflect particular care taken with the visual presentation, characteristic of original editions from this period.

The visible sleeve shows signs of moderate wear: light handling marks, slightly creased corners, and a surface with some traces of use, with no apparent tears on the visible side. The lettering colors remain vibrant, and the photo's contrast remains well-defined. No stickers or handwritten annotations are visible on the displayed side.

This Aznavour 45 rpm combines the appeal of a vintage edition with striking iconography, making the object sought after for listening as well as for decoration or display on a music shelf. The whole perfectly illustrates the aesthetic of early 1970s French singles, with a strong visual identity and careful attention to the artist's presentation.

The technical inscriptions and credits, fully legible at the bottom of the sleeve, add documentary interest for vinyl record enthusiasts and music history buffs. The overall appearance testifies to a meticulous production, typical of major French record labels of that era.

Did you know? Charles Aznavour recorded "Comme ils disent" in 1972, a song that became emblematic for its audacious lyrics addressing homosexuality, a subject rarely treated in French song at the time. "On se réveillera," another track on the record, was co-written with composer Georges Garvarentz, Aznavour's faithful collaborator on many international successes.
