Not only with records appearing on their own label, but people seem to be discovering new contract presses of theirs too, that have these features. My entry for Parchment's: Hollywood Sunset was where I first came across one, although Some copies of Gary Numan's Telekon with this are particularly sought after - suspected that Pye pressed it... or s ebay listings state "Mis-pressed" it. I don't think we can call it a simple case of mis-pressing anymore, as in it being a one off mistake that escaped Pye's attention, as these discs appear quite regularly, provided you are minded to hold every disc up to a light to see if each is a genuine balck vinyl, or has a red translucency. It's just a case of the mix they used for a time... it seems an ongoing thing in discovering which records, and in what kind of quantities they exist in, but already seems there's plenty about.
