My REM "Murmur" is brown and see-thru. "Reckoning" that is purple. I have a yellow 45 of Dinosaur Jr's version of "Just Like Heaven" My "Bug" album is green. Elvis' "Moody Blue" is blue (got that from my Grandmother). Also have a greenish Camper Van Beethoven's "telephone Free Landslide Victory" and a white Nirvana "Bleach". Replacements "stink" that is red. smith's "Queen is Dead" is kind of clear. A Nick Cave "let Love In" that is gray.
Didn't think much about these records until my son and his friends were going through my records and had a fit. Turns out they are worth a lot of $$. I don't want to part with mine but maybe some of you do...
I never meant to collect colored vinyl - hung out w a group of guys that worked in a record shop in the 80's - they were always giving me stuff...

Also have this. Not sure how rare it is.
No Rocky Top, so that tells me it's pre 1972. Running thru the T on back, so it's post 1963. So somewhere between 1964-1971

I have several albums on non-black vinyl:
Tangerine Dream - Force Majeure, clear
Synergy - Cords, clear
Steve Hillage - Green, green
The Stranglers - Black and White, black and white
Genesis - Spot the Pigeon, blue
Be Bop Deluxe - Live! In the Air Age, white
Kraftwerk - Neon Lights, glow-in-the-dark

I also have an album on brown vinyl but I can't remember what it was.

There's no telling how rare any I have are. I've never really researched. I have a bunch of 60's/70's rock and country first pressings I got from my dad and grandfather. Off the top of my head I know I have Eat a Peach(with original poster), White Album, Abbey Road, Pink Floyd Animals. I have a Doc Watson LP that a friend of mine went apeshit over when he saw it in my collection, along with a Tom T. Hall record.

Most of them probably aren't that rare, and some are pretty beat up, so no idea their worth.
