Another coloured vinyl from "12 Tops"

A break from our ongoing series of one-off releases. (Yesterday was the blog's fourth birthday, by the way - yay!)

This post comes courtesy of Holger Schoeler. A couple of weeks ago we reported on the discovery that many of the "12 Tops" albums were pressed on Pye's little-known coloured vinyl formulation. The earliest we had proof of was volume 3 - but Holger has turned up a copy of volume 1 on what he describes as 'violet'.

Here are the images, and we must say he's done a better job than we did with the photography! Volume 1 duly added to the list. Let us know if you have any more...

Here's the updated list of confirmed coloured editions:

• Volume 1
• Volume 3
• Volume 4
• Volume 5
• Volume 6
• Volume 7
• Volume 10
• Volume 15
• Volume 17
• Volume 19
• Volume 21
• Volume 22
• Volume 25
• Volume 27
