45 RPM Disco Vinyl Quando Tony Renis Bimbo Laurent Rossi Vintage 70s

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl record features the title “DISCO QUANDO” in large, red letters on a solid black background on its sleeve. The inscription “Tony Renis & Tony Renis” appears in stylized white lettering below the title. At the bottom of the sleeve, the “BIMBO” logo (Laurent Rossi) is printed in blue, accompanied by a horizontal blue band beneath the main title. The overall visual clearly evokes the typical aesthetic of disco music records from the late 1970s to early 1980s, with distinctive graphic choices and a very legible layout.

The sleeve visible in the photo is made of flexible cardboard, with a satin finish and visible reflections under light. The upper left corner mentions the reference “TLV 5050” in small blue characters. A handwritten annotation “DJ” is also observed on the blue band, indicating possible use in a nightclub or radio at the time. The name “Laurent Rossi” is clearly indicated below the BIMBO logo, which helps identify the label and producer associated with this pressing.

The sleeve design is typical of the disco period, with a strong contrast between the red text and the black background, as well as a rounded, voluminous typeface. No other graphic elements (photo, illustration, sticker) are visible on the presented side. The bottom edge of the sleeve shows slight signs of handling and faint fold marks, characteristic of used vinyl records from this era.

The visible side does not show the vinyl itself, but it is indeed a 45 rpm (single) format, as confirmed by the mention “Vinyl 45T” in the keywords. This type of record, generally used for singles or maxis, was very common on the French and international disco scene in the late 70s. The name “Tony Renis” is repeated twice, which corresponds to the common practice of certain pressings where the main artist appears twice, undoubtedly to reinforce the project's identity.

The overall style of the object, its graphics, and the presentation of information are perfectly in line with disco and dance standards of the 1970s-1980s. The visual “BIMBO Laurent Rossi” also allows identifying this record as a French or European production from that period, intended for the discotheque market and lovers of dance sounds.
