I don't think I have a single picture disc, but I do have 2 copies of Kraftwerk's "Neon Lights" pressed on glow in the dark vinyl. There were some things you could do in vinyl that you can't do with CD.

Somewhere in my pile of vinyl I have a shaped picture disc (45RPM) of OMD's Locomotion. It's a locomotive IIRC.

Blondie's Parallel Lines - Deb's licking a record on one side & a band pic on the other side. Guess which one I liked...

I could have bought a Stranglers picture disc(from 1990, I think) at a used bookstore, but couldn't justify it.

Nor could i justify the purple-colored 1980 plasmatics lp. They wanted $15 for it.

I am surprised no one has mentioned Duran Duran picture disc since they were soooooo ubiquitous back in the day.

I've got one from Kate Bush. Not sure what song it is...might be an interview disc, can't remember. I hung it on my wall and it warped. I should retrieve it from my old bedroom along with all my old Homeground fanzines.

Oh man... off the top of my head I know I have:

Psych Furs, Damned, Motorhead, Echo and the Bunnymen, Zodiac Mindwarp interview picture discs

7"
John Foxx - Endlessly
Gary Numan - Ar 'Friends' Electric
Blondie - Island of Lost Souls
Echo & the Bunnymen - one disc of a 2 disc set
Damned - Thanks For The Night / Nasty

12"/LPs
Blondie - Paralell Lines
Blondie - some bootleg, I forget the title
Dogs D'Amour - Trail Of Tears (not New Wave but still cool)
Exploited - Troops Of Tomorrow

I guess that's all I can think of for right now. I'm sure I have a bunch more.

And while it's not a picture disc I have the bat-shaped 10" Specimen record.

Kate Bush - Moments of Pleasure
Belle Stars - The Clapping Song
Belle Stars - Sweet Memory
Culture Club - Colour By Numbers
Culture Club - Waking Up With A Shitty Album On Fire
and
The Go-Go's - We Got The Beat

Those early pic discs sure put a dent in my teenaged wallet back in the day.

Being the obsessive Blondie fan in my youth, you'd think I'd have noticed that! I'm going to go dig the album out & try it![:D]
