This Rockicks track is super righteous, and I appreciate that they gave the drummer some in the middle of the rockin' and rollin'.

Weirdly my copy of the Reds s/t album ins on GREEN vinyl. The 10" I just played is regular black, but based on the cover I think there must have been a green pressing of that also.

j_no-NYC:

Yes, a former bandmate of mine, who also worked in a record store, had the green vinyl version. Kind of translucent green, if I recall.
