This single with two Elvis-themed disco tracks seems to be the only release by Kids of the King, a project by Eldo Papiri a.k.a. Aldo Frank (1941–2021). French label Disques Festival issued the 12″ record in 1978.

François Dupuich’s illustration obviously was made under the influence of Saturday Night Fever. The Art Nouveau letterforms are from a relatively rare typeface by Letraset, the manufacturer of dry transfer lettering: the all-caps Gary appears only in a few of their catalogs I’ve seen, with a 1970 date and no individual credits.

Fonts from the Flea Market #1260

This double LP by Belgian rock pioneer Burt Blanca (b. 1944) was released by the French label Disques Festival (#197) sometime in the 1970s. The cover typography combines Oxford for the artist’s name with a pile of overlapping caps from Countdown for the title. Both faces were available from Letraset.

“Les Chevrons” / “Solstice” single (1972). [More info on Discogs]





Olivia was used for the second album and the accompanying single by Catharsis. At the time of the release in 1972, the psychedelic rock group from France consisted of Yves de Roubaix, Charles Eddi, Patrick Moulia, and band leader Roland Bocquet. First released without a title (like the debut LP from 1971), the album was reissued as Volume II Les “Chevrons” in 1975, after Catharsis scored a chart hit with the single “Les Chevrons”.

The exuberant italic Tuscan is a good equivalent for the largely instrumental (or rather lyrics-less) hippie music with a mesmerizing proto-Kraut (choucroute?) beat. You can read more about the wonderful Olivia in a previous post. Via oopswhoops, who comments: “It has often been said that Catharsis was largely inspired by Pink Floyd, let’s say that it is the best ‘scat vocal obsessed, guitarless, organ lead Pink Floyd wannabe’ I have ever listened to … No less!”
