Bonnie Tyler – Faster Than The Speed Of Night (LP, 1983, Columbia BFC 38710, Carrollton Pressing, Sealed)

Why This Record Matters
This is Bonnie Tyler’s commercial peak, powered by Jim Steinman’s dramatic production style. “Total Eclipse of the Heart” remains one of the defining pop ballads of the 1980s, blending synth-pop with arena-scale emotion. The album bridges pop, rock, and theatrical production in a way that still resonates with collectors.

Collector Note
Sealed U.S. Carrollton pressing. Factory-sealed copies of this title are increasingly harder to find, especially clean examples without heavy shelf wear. A strong candidate for collectors seeking an untouched copy of a cornerstone ’80s pop record.
