This is a pretty rare promotional 45 rpm record which was produced by Piaggio to get the kids to buy their mopeds. Yes, there was a time when kids liked to play singles on their record players! I'd have to guess that this was only given out in Italy, and I can not comment on the quality (or lack thereof) of the music. The record sleeve is nice though! I know this is not technically a scooter, but we here at Scooterlounge like all two-wheeled vehicles, including mopeds. Plus, there is a Vespa 50 in the background, so there's even something for the haters...
A friend of the site sent this album cover in. I've seen quite a few jazz records with scooters on the cover, but this is one I have not seen before. Nice GS! I hope he isn't going to ride too far with that bone strapped to his hip, it sure would dent a nice horn...
Oh, the good ol' days, when you could slap a picture of a sexy woman and a sexy scooter on your album cover in hopes of enticing the rubes to part with their three Deutchmarks... Yup, then, once you get it home and drop the needle, you realize.... AAAHAHHHHHHHHH ACCORDION COVERS OF TOP 40 SONGS!!! Then, you stab out your ears, and move on with your life.
IN THE FUTURE: we will all be friends with impossibly beautiful leggy uber-people who will regard us sternly. IN THE FUTURE: the uber-people will ride color co-ordinated space scooters. IN THE FUTURE: all clothing will be shiny. IN THE FUTURE: we will all wear non-functional triangular sunglasses. IN THE FUTURE: everyone will re-discover their love for the hammond organ.
That future sounds awesome! If only the last prediction comes true, I'll die a happy man...
