Red Hot Chili Peppers - Unlimited Love -Rood Vinyl- (of zwart)

If you were to add no colourants to a vinyl record you would get something close to translucent white. Black vinyl records have black carbon added to them too. This is ostensibly to make the things stronger, but when they first emerged it also must have been better for the record companies for their new product to look familiar to their customers. (Being that natural vinyl would be purer than black, there is probably an audiophile argument to be made that raw vinyl produces superior sound, but that thought belongs in an alternate history now.)
