Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features the artist Daniel Guichard with the song "Vivre" and the track "L’été c’est bien souvent trop court", released under the Barclay label in 1975. The sleeve displays a color photograph of Daniel Guichard in a bust shot, wearing a blue shirt against a dark background, with bold orange and white typography for the titles and artist's name. The overall aesthetic is characteristic of French productions from the mid-1970s, both in terms of graphics and photographic rendering.

On the lower left part of the sleeve, several credits are clearly visible: "Artistic direction: Gérard Coté", "Orchestration and orchestra conducting: Tony Rallo", "Photo: Laurent Maous", as well as the mentions "1975 Kuklos Corporation" and "Distribution Barclay". These elements highlight the authenticity of an original edition from that era, typical of French pressings from the decade.

The sleeve, visible in the image, shows slightly marked corners and a generally clean surface. The colors remain vibrant, without significant discoloration, and no handwritten inscriptions or additional labels appear on the visible side. The lettering is perfectly legible, and the overall item maintains a strong vintage appearance.

This 45 rpm vinyl record (single), also known as an "SP", is an iconic format from the 1970s, highly sought after for French chanson and variety music.

The photograph of the sleeve is clear and emphasizes the authenticity of the item, with a carefully arranged environment evoking a library or vintage office. Only the front of the sleeve is visible in the image, with no indication of the back or the condition of the record itself.
