I know about the following colors of the Canadian 12" EP:
brown, clear, green, yellow, blue, white, red, gold, and of course black.

On the other hand, I've never seen any of them, and some of these
colors might actually be the 'same' color. Like gold=yellow and
brown=red. I don't know, but would like to know from someone who does.

About Wuthering Heights in gold vinyl:

I know about an 'Old Gold' release, no idea whether the vinyl is colored.

I have an entry in the discography which states that there is a WH single
from the US with gold vinyl. I only saw this referenced once, with no
further information like track listing, catalog number or anything else.

Then there actually is ('actually' means I have seen a copy) a single with
Wuthering Heights and The Man With The Child In His Eyes. It's from "The
Old Gold Collection Of Golden Hits" (I think I should remove the other
entries from the WH single listing I mentioned above). The vinyl here
is most definitely black, at least the copy I have seen.

Then there is a single from the Silver Spotlight Series (Babooshka / Wuthering
Heights), though this most definitely is neither silver nor gold vinyl,
but black vinyl. I own a copy of this one.

Bye,

Uli
