Vinyl 45 RPM Balavoine & Frida Belle ABBAcadabra vintage Barclay French song

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

45 RPM vinyl record presented with its original sleeve, illustrated with color photographic portraits of Daniel Balavoine and Frida. This record is a single titled "Belle," taken from the musical tale "ABBAcadabra," mentioned in blue and yellow on the cover. The names "Balavoine & Frida" appear in large red letters on the upper part. The sleeve also bears the Barclay and Riviera LM logos, located at the bottom left, confirming the French edition by the Barclay label.

The visible side of the sleeve presents a typical appearance of early 80s musical productions, with a graphic layout strongly marked by the aesthetic of that period. One can see a portrait of Daniel Balavoine wearing a dark jacket against a grey-blue background, and a portrait of Frida in a white stage costume, with a headdress and ribbon, against a light background. The lettering of the title "BELLE" stands out in bright blue, while the "ABBAcadabra" logo adopts a childlike graphic style evoking a fairytale universe.

The vinyl record placed in front of the sleeve is black, with a visible central label whose inscriptions are not legible in this image. No major defects are apparent on the surface of the record, but a detailed inspection would be necessary to judge any micro-scratches. The cardboard sleeve shows visible signs of wear: marks, dirt, and possible creases, especially on the upper and lower edges.

The set corresponds to a single 45 RPM vinyl, a standard format for 70s-80s singles, here associated with French chanson and the retro musical universe. This record is particularly identifiable thanks to the collaboration between Daniel Balavoine, a major figure in French chanson, and Frida, a member of the group ABBA.

This 45 RPM vinyl, with its illustrated sleeve, is typical of vintage French musical productions. It serves as a visual and auditory testament to the 1980s French pop aesthetic, through a musical project bringing together two emblematic artists from the European scene.

Condition: Used item, sold as is. The sleeve shows visible signs of wear (marks, dirt, marked corners). The vinyl record appears clean on the visible side, but its playing condition has not been tested here.

Did you know? The musical tale "ABBAcadabra" was created in France in 1983, adapting ABBA songs into French and performed by famous artists, including Daniel Balavoine and Frida.
