The Color of Vinyl

[Hardbopjazz]

Does vinyl records in colors other than black have any effect on the sound of the record?

I have a Milt Jackson Pablo release, that is on red vinyl, "Night Mist." I've had other records over the years that were colored. I don't hear any difference.

Do anyone hear have albums that are on colored vinyl?

I have this records, but mine isn't red. I would think this would be a waste of money pressing albums in multi colors.

If done properly, the color shouldn't have any effect on the quality of the pressing. Black vinyl is colored with carbon powder.

Pure vinyl is relatively clear. Carbon black is added as a groove lubricant.

This is, like, some of that Nicholas Payton regressive gene talk stuff, right?
