It is quite obvious that this back cover of Zhang Xiao Ying's Prinstar EP vinyl is promoting the 60s Denon stereophonic record player, popular amongst the general public who cannot afford expensive European, British or American sets. The stereo set consists of a record player, a radio/tuner/amplifier and a pair of simple speakers. In this typical 45rpm Chinese recording made in Singapore, Zhang Xiao Ying is accompanied by a well-known guitar group called The Travellers although the songs are not part of the promotional package as offered by other advertisements on vinyls.
