Description

This vinyl record is a 45 RPM EP by the French group "Les Compagnons de la Chanson." The cover shown in the photo features a color photograph of the group, consisting of nine members standing side by side outdoors, dressed in sweaters and trousers of various shades (green, blue, yellow, brown, beige, red). The group's name is printed in large blue letters on a white background, above the list of the four songs on the record: "La chanson de Lara," "Le temps des étudiants," "L’amour sans toi," "Surcouf (Original Film Soundtrack)." The CBS logo is in the upper left with the reference "EP 5741."

The cover has a graphic style typical of the 60s, with a carefully composed photograph and imposing typography. The cardboard sleeve shows some visible signs of wear, including discreet marks and slight soiling on the front, with no apparent tears. The cover image is clear and well-centered, highlighting the vintage character of this EP.

The visible side does not show the record itself; only the front cover is displayed. No accessories or additional elements are visible in the image. The colors remain well-preserved, with natural tones and an authentic period feel consistent with 1960s phonographic production.

The inscriptions are perfectly legible: the group's name, the tracklist, and the mention "Surcouf (Original Film Soundtrack)" are clearly displayed. The CBS logo and the reference "EP 5741" are also clearly visible, confirming the original pressing.

This vinyl is intended for anyone looking for an authentic French variety record, especially an EP by Les Compagnons de la Chanson with its vintage photographic cover. The whole set presents a characteristic vintage look, both in its visual and its graphics.
