Despite my best efforts to stop buying reissues or represses, I am always finding exceptions and buying more copies of the same record again and again. The latest example of my inability to follow my own rules is yet another copy of the Negative Approach 'Tied Down' LP, this time on orange vinyl.
One of the things I really enjoy about the different colour represses of this record is that they change the colour of the sleeve to match the vinyl. The first colour repress was green vinyl, then we got purple vinyl.. but both of those colours were pressed to match the sleeve colours that had previously been made and issued over the years since the LP first came out in . This orange pressing is the first time that the sleeve has been turned orange, and this makes it a cool pressing in its own right.
Of course, now that they have taken the step of issuing this in a completely brand new sleeve colour, there are no limits, so it wouldn't surprise me if this eventually gets pressed on every colour under the sun, but I wonder at what point I would stop buying them?
