Demis Roussos We Shall Dance 45 rpm vinyl vintage retro Philips

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl features the original sleeve of the single "We Shall Dance" performed by Demis Roussos. The visible side showcases a photographic portrait of the artist, wearing a loose tunic with orange and red patterns, adorned with a distinctive necklace. The background is solid dark green, highlighting Demis Roussos' silhouette and face. The song titles "We Shall Dance" and "Lord of the Flies" are inscribed in white letters, large for the main title, smaller for the B-side, accompanied by the mention "b/w" (for "backed with").

The Philips label logo is clearly visible in the upper right corner of the sleeve, confirming the original pressing. In the lower right, the "parade couleurs" logo is distinguishable, typical of French productions of the era. The entire visual evokes the graphic and photographic style of the early 1970s, the period during which this record was released. The thick, rounded typography, as well as the artist's clothing aesthetic, are characteristic of this decade.

The sleeve shows visible signs of wear: prominent creases, blunted corners, surface scratches, and handling marks. These signs of age are common on old vinyl sleeves and attest to their authenticity and journey over the years. No details of the back are visible in the photo.

The record is not visible in the provided image; only the front sleeve is shown. It is therefore not possible to comment on the condition of the vinyl itself, nor the possible presence of accessories or inserts.

Did you know? Demis Roussos, a Greek singer with a recognizable voice, achieved international success from the early 1970s. "We Shall Dance" is one of his first solo hits, released in 1971, shortly after his participation in the band Aphrodite's Child. French pressings of Philips 45s from this period often stand out with the mention "parade couleurs" on the sleeve.
