John Travolta - Whenever I´m Away From You (1977) - €4,99

During the latter half of the 1970s, John Travolta was the biggest star in Hollywood; after a string of hits in films, on television, and on the radio, he had emerged as a true cultural phenomenon, defining tastes in music and fashion while dominating innumerable column inches in newspapers, magazines, and gossip columns.
Like so many other celebrities, Travolta's initial fame proved short-lived, and by the '80s, he was viewed by the media and the public alike largely as a relic of his era; unlike so many other celebrities, however, he resurfaced, Phoenix-like, the following decade, reestablishing his claims to film superstardom and staking out new territory as one of the most acclaimed actors in contemporary film.

In 1975, Travolta was cast in a television sitcom titled Welcome Back, Kotter; as Vinnie Barbarino, a dim-witted high-school Lothario, he shot to overnight superstardom, and quickly his face adorned T-shirts, lunch boxes, and the like.
Before the first episode of the series even aired, he had also won a small role in Brian DePalma's 1976 classic Carrie, giving him inroads to the movie industry, and at the early peak of his Kotter success he even recorded a series of pop music LPs, such as "Whenever I´m Away From You (1977)" (with another cover and playlist it is also the album " Can't Let Go" )1977).
