Day 20: Colors
I have a couple 70's/80's albums/7" on colored vinyl, but it wasn't really that popular with mainstream releases - it was seen on bootlegs and such a lot more.
This is one of the first ones I got when I got into buying vinyl. The water damaged sleeve made it very affordable - and the vinyl was in great shape.
Smashing Pumpkins – Siamese Dream
Caroline Records/Virgin – CAROL 1740 1, 1993
Original pressing on Orange Marbled vinyl
Cut at Masterdisk
Pressed at Rainbo

I am way behind now but will try to catch up.
Day 13 - Lucky 13
The Mars Volta - Frances the Mute
Bought this for about $30 CAD back in early 2008, when I was first really starting to buy records. Naively assumed everything was available on vinyl, didn't know that this would turn out to be pretty rare and now goes for a few hundred. One of a couple jewels of my collection, and over the course of my life, probably one of my most played albums.

I didn't get a chance to post this yesterday:
Day 21 - Summer Is Here!
Summer jams, anything goes
Someone on this forum recommended this band. First time spinning the vinyl since I ordered it but it sounds great!

Day 22 - Hot Water
Play an album by someone who has been in some kind of legal trouble
Johnny Cash - Sings: The Songs That Made Him Famous
Info from Wikipedia
"Phillips was rumored to have told Cash to "go home and sin, then come back with a song I can sell", although in a 2002 interview, Cash denied that Phillips made any such comment."
" Although Cash cultivated a romantic outlaw image, he never served a prison sentence. Despite landing in jail seven times for misdemeanors, he stayed only one night on each stay. "

Day 22: Legal Issues.
Jello Biafra was arrested for distributing "harmful material to minors" after including the infamous poster in the original copies of this album. Dead Kennedys also disbanded during the trial.
Spoiler Alert - The trial ended deadlocked 5 to 7 in favor of acquittal and was declared a mistrial - judge then dropped all charges.
Dead Kennedys – Frankenchrist
Alternative Tentacles – VIRUS 45, 1985
Includes the H.R. Giger poster "Work 219: Landscape XX" (also known as "Penis Landscape")
Poster image below - click at your own peril.
Jello Biafra's Spoken Word album covers the whole story of censorship and the trial - it's a great listen, even being a bit dated.

Day 22- In Hot Water: Fela Kuti- Everything Scatter
Let’s see- In the US without visas & fled before deportation, formed a state within Nigeria prompting the Nigerian military to attack & destroy his studio and home. Countless arrests & made up charges all the way to kidnapping and murder. Exiled to Ghana for a period of time. Actually spent time in prison for currency smuggling.
Despite all of this, he never stopped his relentless protests against corrupt, dictatorial governments in his own country and around the world. Somehow is one of the greatest musicians to ever walk the Earth.

Day 21: summer time
Gang gang dance ~ eye contact
When I think summer I think about endless days and nights of having fun, so I chose gang gang dance because they are one of those bands who just have fun creating music.

Snoop Doggy Dogg - Doggystyle
His numerous drug offences aside, he faced a murder charge at the peak of his career. That’s some real gangsta shit right there!
