Dianne Steinberg – Universal Child
Universal Child is available from the Mr. Hansen Records collection as a warm and soulful vinyl LP from American singer Dianne Steinberg. Released on Fantasy Records, this album presents a smooth late-1970s blend of soul, disco, funk and sophisticated vocal pop.
The record has a soft, elegant and uplifting feel, with Steinberg’s expressive voice placed at the centre of polished arrangements, rich backing vocals and gently grooving rhythms. Tracks such as Fantasy Come True, Amazing, Precious Goods, Where Do You Go From Love?, Baby, I’m Yours and Universal Child show the album’s mix of romantic soul, dancefloor warmth and spiritual optimism.
The gatefold sleeve adds extra visual appeal, with full lyrics, credits and portrait photography that give the release a very complete period feel. For collectors of late-70s soul, disco and lesser-known female vocal albums, Universal Child is a charming and characterful title.

Shipping is charged separately. The final cost depends on the delivery country and total order weight and is shown at checkout before payment.
We grade the record and sleeve separately. For example, NM/VG+ means Near Mint media with a Very Good Plus sleeve. Always read the notes for the individual copy.
NM / M- (Near Mint): Almost like new. Vinyl has no obvious defects; the sleeve has no significant wear.
VG+ (Very Good Plus): Light signs of use. Vinyl may have minor surface marks that do not materially affect listening; the sleeve may have light edge or corner wear.
VG (Very Good): More visible wear. Vinyl may have audible surface noise, especially in quiet passages; sleeves may show creases, ring wear or seam splits.
M (Mint): Perfect condition. Sealed means unopened; it does not guarantee a perfect sleeve or allow the disc inside to be inspected.
This is a short vinyl grading guide based on the Goldmine standard. For CDs and other formats, follow the condition notes in the listing.
