Description

Mega rare single pressed in Argentina in the 60s.
What we have here is perhaps one of the rarest local releases ever, of which no copies have been reported before on Ebay or elsewhere. This white-labeled promotional single from Daniela Bianchi features cover versions of Take A Heart (The Sorrows), and The Revolution Kind (Sonny & Bono), both sung in Italian. 
What a Mystery!. Is she the famous actress best known for her role of captivating Tatiana Romanova in the 1963 James Bond movie From Russia with Love ?. If yes, this charming Bond girl recorded a fantabulous version of Take A Heart, and I just wonder how many other female versions of this song are out there. Of course, this one was most likely based on the Italian version by The Sorrows (a.k.a. Mi Si Spezza Il Cuore).    
The reason why these tracks were released exclusively in Argentina is simply amazing and no rational explanation is available.     
The record actually looks like a private pressing; no company is mentioned on the labels, and no catalog number. It was manufactured circa 1966 or 1967 and no stock copies exist as far as is known. The only thing for sure is that it was released on a small local label out of Buenos Aires in the 60s (without commercial distribution). 
Please don´t forget to check the sound clips:

   

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Title Side A:  Se Me Parte el Corazon (Take a Heart) 

Title Side B:  Como pueden juzgarnos (The Revolution Kind) 

Made in: Argentina

Year & Label:  196?  N/A 

Cover Grading: Generic white paper sleeve

Vinyl grading:  Please note: before detailing the grade it is necessary to consider the nature of this record. It was a sort of private pressing, and you need to keep in mind, this was manufactured more than 40 years ago in South America. However, I was really amazed how good the quality sound is. As usual, I described it visually to the best of my ability, and there are available sample clips of both sides (no filters of any type were used). It was recorded using a new-old-stock Shure M75G Type 2 cartridge. So you will have a reliable idea of the actual quality sound. The A-side is visually in VG condition, with certain amount of light scuff marks, a few small thin hairlines, and there is a non-feelable semi-deep scratch (around 7-8 millimeters), which caused a couple of almost inaudible pops/clicks (check sample), but not obtrusive at all. While the flipside looks visually quite similar to the A-side (scuff marks, thin hairlines, some negligible light surface marks), but no other major flaws to mention. Both sides play awesomely well! (With a minimum treatment, even to be compiled!). Both labels are completely clean. (NM; EX; VG+; VG; G;)
