the actual CD on my Yellow Album doesn't look like the one Apl posted above by the way. i think those were later pressings. i bought mine the day they were released. mine is more of a maroon color.

just for the record.

but the album art itself: quite yellow indeed.

I do... makes everything look so warm, which is especially important in Canadian winters.

we agreed long ago to agree-to-disagree. and i'm happy with that decision. i think it's great that we live in a world full of diversity, where things can be interpreted in different ways.

that said, i will say i'm glad you don't fly an airplane or drive a bus for a living . .

Show Me Your Tears is one of my favorite albums of ALL TIME. He has a sort of magic with The Catholics. Don't get me wrong, I would listen to The Orange Album or even The Cult Of Ray without hesitation, but if given a choice, I would probably choose something with The Catholics.

Heh heh, it's funny you say that. I just rented a plane for 4:00 this afternoon 15 minutes ago. But I don't make a living at it, so hopefully it's still a relief a little. :)

Yeah, I know we agreed to disagree, but I gotta' get my jabs in here and there, too.

Orange... Yellow.... I could have said piss colored. You still would have known what I meant. Even you said yours wasn't yellow.

the cd itself isn't yellow.

the cover art could hardly be more yellow. it's blindingly yellow.

Don't worry, we all call it the orange album here 'cept Floop. I've even heard FB refer to it as the orange album once...

even my mom calls it that.

Calling Martin Heidegger ...

Um, to me, the first Frank Black album appears yellow. Yes, it is yellow and white, but which color do you notice the most on White Stripes albums? White? No really. White is a neutral color. Red? Get you stopped by the cops.

Orange? That's the CD's color. If that was the measure, "The Beatles" would have been called the "Black" album, as the interior was vinyl.

Maybe we should call it the "Hiroshige" album, since it's cover is reminiscent of 19th century Japanese wood-block prints?

Crazy, that is indeed maroon. For Triakel, since the front is not one solid colour, we went with the colour of the disc itself. If we were going to call "The Beatles" the black album, then that would be equivalent to calling FB the silver album.

Plus, looking in the liner notes, orange is the prevalent colour. Even the yellow on the cover is not a pure yellow but an orangish yellow. Plus it flows so much better off the tongue.

But I didn't want to sidetrack the topic this badly for a joking argument we've had ongoing for a loooong time. I'm cool with the Hiroshige album.

And to think the Brits got accused of derailing threads.

Frank's work with the catholics is so good, but his solo stuff is a little better. The first album, toty, honeycomb, these are all classics.
Someone should make capt. maximus freak out again. I liked it when he got all bent about the DINTS typo and then listed his credentials, like they legitimized his critique.
If people got mad more often, the rest of us could laugh that much more.

I'll pretend I'm mad if you like, Adda. I take requests on occasion, as long as I have an extra moment or two. It'll probably have to wait until mid-December for a long tirade, however, since I'm swamped with end-of-semester grading at the moment!

I think you misconstrued the tone of my reply. It was actually meant to be a little facetious. Hard to detect tone in cyberspace. But of course that legitimizes my critique---how could it not? It makes my opinion all the more valid than yours.

Now, can you detect the irony in this message? I hope so!

After all this debate Orange/Yellow, I picked mine and realized that it´s Orange if you look at the back, where´s the tracklist and the spine, so there´s more orange than yellow...Who wins?

yellow, orange, sunny album..

But yeah, his first two solo albums have always been my fave. I'd like to hear him work with Eric Drew Feldman some more too.

I call it Frank Black self titled but if I had to choose it would be yellow. It doesn't matter what colour the back or inside is!

Also my CD is more brown/bronze.
