The sound is incredible but today the price is phew So this yellow vinyl edition is welcome and the price too It is for sure a good investment.The album was issued on 10 July 2000 (20 years ago yesterday) and features the top ten hits Yellow and Trouble.Parachutes started a sequence of eight consecutive UK number one albums, which is impressive in anyones books.Before you ask, no I dont know how limited it is and Parlophone arent saying.
I was going to buy it until I read a few reviews saying how bad a pressing it was. Probably explains why it was on offer for 9.99 at one stage. First two albums were really good but I soon became tired of Chriss pretentiousness and we consciously uncoupled by the third album. Havent listed to them since then but I will buy this album, nice to own it on wax. ![]() Id never heard a really good one until I stumbled across the MQA version on Tidal which is the best version Id ever heard and on a overall scale a 7. It doesnt bother me one way or the other if they dont announce numbers, it wouldnt be the difference between buying and not buying. I do like coloured vinyl, but if its an album I really want Ill buy it anyway the colour is irrelevant. Coloured vinyl would be a nice-to-have rather than a must-have. The days of vinyl albums being in print and manufactured for years after release date are long gone. But you have to laugh at the description of the Indies exclusive (i.e. Amazon and Sainsburys) colour vinyl variant always being promoted as limited but the standard black vinyl never is, despite it also being limited and probably in smaller numbers. Please continue donating to the charity shops so I can collect them. I loved it when they were in that pre stadium phase and the songs felt a bit more real and honest with that toned down acoustic feel rather than massive, commercial, rather overblown yet lifeless stuff they did later on when they looked like theyd been mucking about with the day-glo paints. If EMI wont divulge numbers, I reckon that means this really isnt very limited at all. So probably one of the first people to play the track on any station. Not on hospital radio, but I recall hearing stuff by them around 1998, before anyone who knew who they were and dismissed even as Radiohead wannabes. Wasnt my cup of tea, but as soon as Yellow hit the speakers, customers started making a beeline to the counter. Its a shame the Parachutes release isnt pink thatd bring out the naysayers. ![]() I loved that Coldplay gave room at Glastonbury in 2016 (just repeated on the BBC) to showcase and promote Viola Beach after the tragedy of their young deaths, and then follow up with Barry Gibb coming on to sing Stayinp Alive. We play the album a lot its an improvement on A Headful Of Dreams.
