How about an album by Ben (short for Benjamin, but Benedict also shortens to Ben) Webster, who plays saxophone, pressed on 200g vinyl?

The 200th Pope was Pope Urban V.....I honestly can't accept that that has anything to do with this record...it can't be Urban Dance Squad...no saxophone...

200g

There we go.

The pope in the pic had nothing to do with it, just what he was up to....

That would have been an awesome clue! It's not Ben Webster, though.

Sonny Rollins – Saxophone Colossus?

200g eh, that's kind of heavy, could it be Gene Ammons Heavy Sax? If you've got $3 you can hop on discogs and get heavy with Gene right now!!!

Well, that eliminates NOFX on 700g vinyl.

So far we have saxophone, 200g, and now this....

Caroline Rose... red is the prominent color she uses. Her name would also reference "rose" the color. Or a reference to the flower?

She also has an album named "superstar", which could reference a big star. And another named "loner" which could signify a solo artist.

I want to say it could be this, but I can't make the 200g work here.

This had a 200g release but that version is expensive now.

This.... actually fits! Well done! I was intending something else though. At least a couple more thoughts can be squeezed out of this.

 

[Turbo]

what about this one, which references the Rollins cover and comes in red. But I don't think it's in 200g.

 

[Turbo]

ok, so solo artist? and scratch all of the other spitballing...

Ah yes, the famous red Herring.

I need more Sonny Rollins in my collection, but it's not him.

Solo superstar? The saxophone was the only instrument that Prince ever received formal instruction in...

"Incense and Candles" is a track on 3121.

Is 3121 available on 200g?

edit: as far as I can tell, no.

This is actually getting closer to the genre.... and potentially another ambiguous clue.

Edit: It's not Prince, though.

 

[4080]

Gotta find out who this belongs to:

I just went down a stupid rabbit hole trying to convince myself that maybe the herring was a herring and it was actually
