Bill Champlin – Single
Released: 1978
Label: Full Moon/Epic/CBS Records
Notes:
Front cover: This has been well-loved. I’ve had it for a long time but it went through a previous owner/owners. It’s also an original promo so it’s got 40 years on it. Those 40 years show quite prominently. I replaced the black entirely and “cloned” all over to bring it back to life.
Sleeve-front: The black is mostly intact but I did “clone” all over it to smooth it out. I tried replacing it wholesale but the text is fragile so that didn’t work.
Sleeve-back: Thankfully, I could replace the white background without damaging the text.
Back cover: This back cover is a strong candidate for “hardest ever”. I spent quite a bit of time “cloning” just about every element you see to make this work. Even after I tried replacing the white border, I still had lots of cloning to do to make it work. Nothing was salvageable.
Labels: These are in amazing shape. Just scanned, removed spindle hole with some cloning, and uploaded.
