Vinyl 45 RPM Mireille Mathieu Paris Brûle-t-il ? 60s retro Barclay

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This 45 rpm vinyl features a cover illustrated with a color photographic portrait of Mireille Mathieu, in profile, performing in front of a vintage microphone. The upper part of the cover is dominated by a bright blue background, with the title "PARIS BRULE-T-IL?" inscribed in red, followed by the artist's name "MIREILLE MATHIEU" in large white letters on a blue band. The song titles "PARIS EN COLÈRE - SOLDATS SANS ARMES" appear below, in blue typography on a darker blue background. The Barclay logo is visible in the bottom right. This graphic design, typical of the 1960s, highlights the retro aesthetic of the French music scene of that era.

The cover has a glossy finish and a slightly satin appearance, characteristic of original 45 rpm editions from that period. The colors are still well saturated, with a strong contrast between the blue of the background, the red of the artist's clothing, and the old metallic microphone. The photograph is sharp, allowing one to appreciate the details of Mireille Mathieu's face and iconic hairstyle, as well as the rhinestone-adorned collar of her stage outfit.

The vinyl is not visible in this image; only the front cover is shown. No major defects are apparent on the visible part: no notable stains or marked creases, although slight signs of wear can be expected due to age (see photo). The upper corners show very slight blunting, which is common on vintage records.

The graphic style and typography confirm a typical 1960s edition, linked to the release of the film "Is Paris Burning?" and Mireille Mathieu's career at that time. This record is a representative item of French chanson and Barclay's production during the yéyé period.

Did you know? Mireille Mathieu recorded "Paris en colère" for the soundtrack of the film "Is Paris Burning?", released in 1966 and directed by René Clément. The title became a strong symbol of French protest song, often associated with the history of the Liberation of Paris.
