Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features the original cover of the single "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me" by the band Culture Club, a staple of the 80s international pop scene. The visible side of the cover displays a colorful visual, dominated by orange, yellow, and white tones, with a photographic portrait of the band's singer in the foreground. The graphic aesthetic is typical of the new wave period, with dynamic patterns and stylized handwritten inscriptions on the borders.

The band's name "CULTURE CLUB" appears at the top of the cover, printed in black capital letters with a deliberate distressed effect, while the song title "DO YOU REALLY WANT TO HURT ME" is displayed at the bottom, alternating black and orange characters to highlight the beginning of the title. The center of the cover is occupied by a photograph of a face, surrounded by a black graphic frame reminiscent of a brushstroke effect, accentuating the visual style characteristic of 1980s musical productions.

The jacket features additional graphic elements, such as dark orange handwritten lines and circular patterns, which reinforce the energetic and expressive aspect of the design. The texture of the cover shows a slight grain and some visible signs of wear on the edges, indicating prior use, without however obscuring the vibrant colors and the central portrait.

The visible side shows no mention of a label, reference, or other secondary inscriptions. Only the main titles and the visual are visible in this photograph.
