'while chamberlin performed all drum parts on the album, he would disappear for days on drug benders that caused everyone to fear for his life. After one incident where the drummer had disappeared for two or three days, corgan "put the hammer down", according to vig, and had chamberlin perform the drum part for "cherub rock" until his hands bled' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/siamese_dream

Yes, I hoped that was the reason.

But what is it with people and coloured vinyl? I don't understand it. :scratch:

Maybe they think of it more as an investment because the coloured vinyls are usually limited to a certain amount of pressings and they obviously increase in value as time passes due to their rarity so, the potential for money making.

You are probably right in your analysis.

I, on the other hand, only buy records to play and not as an investment. And IMO any colour other than black would make cuing difficult.

Me too.

I have maybe half a dozen or so on coloured vinyl, and none of them were bought deliberately. Just got them home to find them so. With the exception being Kraftwerk's "Tour De France" which came with blue and red discs. That's the one time I knew what was coming.

I haven't found coloured vinyl to sound worse, but then it hasn't been better. So I don't see the point other than it being a marketing gimmick.

The only one that sounds really terrible is Eurythmics' first album which has a picture printed on it, and the vinyl is really stiff like a 78. That is all but unplayable.
