Vinyl 45 RPM Demis Roussos We Shall Dance vintage Philips retro sleeve

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features Demis Roussos' single "We Shall Dance," with the song "Lord of the Flies" on the B-side, as indicated on the sleeve. The sleeve features a color photographic portrait of Demis Roussos wearing a patterned orange tunic, adorned with a white necklace, against a dark green background. The main inscriptions are clearly visible: "DEMIS ROUSSOS," "WE SHALL DANCE," "lord of the flies," as well as the Philips 45 rpm logo in the upper right corner and the mention "parade couleurs" in the lower right. The graphics and typography are characteristic of early 1970s music productions.

The sleeve has a matte appearance with visible signs of wear, including creases and surface scuffs, as well as some white marks due to age. The overall visual remains legible, with the portrait well-centered and the colors still contrasted despite the patinated effect. No stickers or handwritten notes are apparent on the visible side.

The vinyl record is not visible in the photo; only the front sleeve is shown. The corners of the sleeve are slightly blunted, which is common for a record of this era. The left edge suggests the presence of a standard opening for this format.

The "Philips" logo in the upper right attests to the original edition, while the mention "parade couleurs" indicates a thematic series developed by the label during that period. The general presentation evokes the pop and psychedelic aesthetic typical of vintage music productions from the 1970s.
