Svart

That's not a Swedish fart

It's a label

Orange. Black and clear vinyl

I got the orange. Wish I'd bought all of them!!!

I would also recommend the 2006-2007 double LP digitally re-mastered reissues of the first 7 albums with bonus tracks on colored vinyl but they now go for more than original first pressings which were analog recorded and mastered, at least through Night Time.

KJ2003 has never been issued on vinyl.

MMXII and Pylon can still be found close to original retail.  Probably the rarest, most expensive album to track down these days is the Youth Remix 3 LP set "In Dub" which goes for around $200 among collectors (it's a great sounding vinyl pressing, btw).

>> There is an active PledgeMusic project centered around a live album from a show late last year if you're don't mind waiting an unknown amount of time for your LP to show up in the mail.  This is probably the most direct way to funnel money into the KJ machine.
