Superb, crossover item by the legendary disco diva. This is the obscure 1st press stereo USA stock copy with 'Masterdisk' stamp in deadwax. Wanted for the disco tinged modern soul of "This Love Affair" featuring Gloria's beautiful vocals, sexy harmony backing, cool bassline and addictive percussion hook. MFSB drummer, Errol Benson helps to keep the mood, loose and carefree too. Great for DJs! Disc cut loud with big production sound. SideB is more sophisticated and soulful than your average archetypal disco tune of the period. A lovely double-sider. Salsoul percussionist, Jimmy Walker and indemand session man, Larry Washington on congas. Really nice to own on original 7inch format and difficult to find in nice condition, like our copy ;)
Our record grading: SEALED / M- / VG++ / VG+ / VG
RECORD - shiny, strong VG++ (actually better) regardless of some faint hairlines and faint scuffs / one mini needle scuff (cosmetic only) to side A / some light background surface noises to quiet intro of sideB / disc cut loud with big production sound / some natural light background noises
SLEEVE - not graded - original Polydor New York company sleeve has general wear / item from the archive of an important record label who had offices in Milan, hence the archive pen notations front and back
LABEL - 'x' notations and or archive number to both sides / some natural age discoloration / a few faint old dirt marks from storage
After a 2 year gap, Pourquoi Moi Vintage is back :)
