Vinyl 45 rpm Romeo Maman Le Petit Caruso vintage Carrere Records

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This record is a 45 rpm single, identifiable by its illustrated cardboard cover on the front. The jacket features a photographic portrait of a young boy, accompanied by colorful and bold typography, characteristic of 1970s-1980s music design. The main title "MAMAN" appears in bright yellow, followed by the subtitle "LE PETIT CARUSO" in red letters, and the artist's name "ROMEO" in yellow capital letters, clearly visible at the bottom right. The publisher "DISQUES CARRERE" is mentioned at the bottom left.

The cover photograph shows the singer in an indoor setting, wearing a light patterned shirt and a dark jacket, against a staircase backdrop. The dominant colors are yellow, red, and brown, giving the whole a retro and warm look. The visual condition of the cover shows some folds and signs of wear on the edges, typical signs of a vintage vinyl record that has survived several decades.

The visible side does not provide any information about the back side or the condition of the record itself. No details about the matrix or the precise pressing reference are legible here. The whole corresponds to a standard 45 rpm format, mainly used for singles in the second half of the 20th century.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. Cover with visible signs of wear on the edges, slightly dog-eared corners, surface showing some handling marks. The record has not been tested and may require cleaning or restoration for optimal listening.

Did you know? The Disques Carrere label, founded in France in the 1960s, produced many popular singles in the 1970s and 1980s, contributing to the rise of French and European pop music. 45 rpm records were the preferred format for distributing hit songs at the time, with each side usually featuring a main track (A-side) and a secondary track (B-side).
