Sandy Lam's "Lonely Girl" 12-inch Vinyl Record: A Rare Collectible of 80 s Urban Sensibility

Sandy Lam's "Lonely Girl" 12-inch Extended Re-mix EP,released in 1987,was a significant marker in the shift of Hong Kong pop music from traditional love songs to urban beats. This record features some of Sandy Lam's most explosive early works,especially "Passion," an adaptation of the theme song from the movie "Top Gun," which fully showcases the wildness and delicacy in her vocals.

For vinyl collectors,a "new and unopened" first-pressing record from the 80 s is extremely rare. Its physical condition directly determines its premium and collectible value in the secondary market.
