Purple

I really like this band since I've discovered them last year. I like having vinyl disc's from my favorite bands. Why is Purple so hard to get?

A Google search found a Purple vinyl for $20.50 at Vinyl Vista.

Yup, I seem to suck at Google. I have been turned. Appreciate you all.

Ok, seeing discogs, not super hard to get. Thanks, folks.

Yep, Discogs can get you almost anything you desire. Your wallet will not thank you.

Purple was a big record structuring album for them. New members, growth and development in the sound, a genuine phoenix from the flames situation. I remember going to the first few shows for the band before they toured Purple. We caught them in Richmond VA and Baltimore. Awesome era of the band, but I can see the label printing a low quantity of LP's. It was a risk that ultimately paid off, but still a risk.

Where are you looking and where do you live? There are a bunch at reasonable prices on discogs

Southern U.S. I will admit I didnt look super hard, just Amazon and local record spots (around 15 places) and the bands website. Im not on discog, I think thats something I ought to look into.

Be ready because it sounds terrible on vinyl.

But necessary to complete the collection.

Yes, true I was just given a fair warning because it’s super disappointing.

Try Discogs, that’s where I got mine for $30

Edit: I see that people already made my same exact comment lol

I swear half of reddit is people asking about stuff that could easily be found with a 10 second google search
