Various Artists
Kiss My Ass: Classic Kiss Regrooved
Mercury Records
1994
I generally dislike tribute albums. But this Kiss tribute from 1994 was cool and the red vinyl version was even cooler! It featured some great signature bands of the 90s including Gin Blossoms, Toad The Wet Sprocket, and Lenny Kravitz.
Garth Brooks’ performance of my favorite Kiss song, “Hard Luck Woman” made me a Garth fan!
Bryan Adams
Reggae Christmas
A&M Records
1985
Nothing says Reggae like Canadian Bryan Adams, right mon, eh?
The Jayhawks
Blue
American Recordings
1995
Here’s the blue vinyl 45 version of The Jayhawks‘ Blue. While it’s actually not a Christmas song, this promo 7″ version was packaged as a Christmas Song.
Stone Temple Pilots
Purple
1994
Atlantic Records
Remembering Scott Weiland this week with my favorite STP album, Purple. The vinyl LP of Purple was a limited release and pressed in clear purple vinyl in the US and marble colored vinyl in the UK.
