[edit]What about the diffrent artwork printed on diffrent CDs? --buzlink 02:59, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- Give me an example, and I'll add it. I did a Google Image search on 213 covers, and they were all the same. --Evil Eccentric 00:41, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
In my experience, I've seen two different artworks on the CDs themselves; one is background of animal scales in yellow, and the other is just nebulous blotches in yellow and purple.
Yup one is scales and the other I believe is a close up picture of icing on a cake, in diffrent colors with sprinkles. I believe the yellow scales version came out, in the later years, with the cake version the earlier version. --buzlink (talk) 18:43, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
Album title
[edit]Is it officially stated that this album is called "Purple", or could it actually be "紫" and simply pronounced that way? --Evil Eccentric 00:38, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
I was told by my sister that the primary reason it's called "Purple" is that the vinyl record edition was sold with the vinyl actually being purple in color. I do happen to own a copy of the vinyl, but I've never had the heart to open it from its cellophane to investigate personally. I feel like this should be referenced.
I own 2 copies of the vinyl, one open and one sealed. It is, in fact, pressed on purple vinyl. However, one contemporary "rumor" that I've never had verified is that the name "Purple" is coincidental (non-intentional). The Chinese character, if viewed from the side, looks like the English word "Stone". The guys thought it was pretty cool and decided to throw it on the album. The fact that it meant "Purple" was secondary to the visual aspect of the glyph. Again, this was a contemporary rumor (long before the internet was any good for verification) and I can't seem to verify/refute it based on my own searches. Take it with a grain of salt. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.250.162.108 (talk) 19:07, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
"Unglued" flash video
[edit]Does anyone know about this? I know where to find it but should I post it? --BlooWilt 21:16, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
Eh, never mind. --BlooWilt 10:30, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
What is that? At least post it here in the talk section --buzlink (talk) 18:46, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Genre
[edit]Someone has put "alternative metal" in the album's genre, can anyone else verify this? There are certainly a few heavy rock songs, but I wouldn't class it as metal (compared to the previous album). It just doesn't seem right to me. ConCass (talk) 14:16, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

Paul Leary
[edit]Several sites and Wiki list Paul Leary of the Butthole Surfers as performing "the last guitar solo of the album." Not true. He plays the solo on the third track, Lounge Fly 137.103.230.145 (talk) 20:00, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
