Complete item notes
Dave Wang's 1989 album "Who Knows a Drifter's Heart" is the pinnacle of his singing career and an epitome of the golden age of Hong Kong pop music. For vinyl collectors,this album holds immense cultural and investment value. In the current second-hand market,the buyback price of this album is closely tied to its version,condition,and completeness.
Why is this vinyl record so precious.
- An icon of its era: Dave Wang's unique "melancholy drifter" image pioneered a new style for male singers at the time,and the hit song "Who Knows a Drifter's Heart" topped major music charts for weeks.
- Recording craftsmanship: Vinyl production technology reached its peak in the late 1980s. The wide dynamic range and vocal texture of analog recordings are irreplaceable by digital music.
- Market scarcity: With the rise of CDs in the 1990s,vinyl production plummeted. Finding a well-preserved first edition of this album today is truly rare.

- Is the disc surface hazy (moldy). Long-term storage in humid environments can cause a white haze on the disc,affecting sound quality.
