NEW SEALED Laura Branigan HOLD ME LP Atlantic 81265-1 1985 NOS Notch Cut For Sale

This is a Museum-Quality, Still Sealed (SS) copy of a landmark 1985 synth-pop album. While the jacket features a factory \"notch cut\" near the barcode—identifying it as a retail \"remainder\" from the 1980s—the vinyl inside is an untouched, factory-fresh time capsule. A sealed copy is the only way to experience the high-gloss production of Harold Faltermeyer with the absolute silence and dynamic range of unplayed 1980s Atlantic vinyl.

Detailed Description & Features

• The \"I Found Someone\" Original: This album contains the original 1985 version of \"I Found Someone,\" written by Michael Bolton and Mark Mangold. While later made famous by Cher, Branigan’s version is considered by many vocal purists to be the definitive \"Power Ballad\" interpretation.

• Production Powerhouse: Produced by Harold Faltermeyer and Jack White. This era of Branigan’s career utilized top-tier synthesizers and digital drum programming, creating the \"wall of sound\" pop style that dominated 1985 radio.

• Tracklist Highlights: Includes the Top 40 hit \"Spanish Eddie,\" the dance-floor favorite \"Hold Me,\" and a majestic synth-pop cover of Alphaville’s \"Forever Young.\"

• Notable Musicians: Features an incredible lineup of session legends including Nathan East on bass, Dann Huff on guitar, and backing vocals by James Ingram and Richard Page (of Mr. Mister).

• Condition: Mint / Still Sealed. The shrink wrap is tight and intact. As noted, there is a notch cut near the barcode, which was standard for discounted retail items in the late 80s. The jacket remains vibrant with no \"ring wear\" or sunlight fading.
