I'm glad to know that I wasn't hallucinating during those years- at least not while playing records...
Yes- on the Warner Brothers "Boulevard" label. Have a quick look at any of your USA pressings of Black Sabbath LPs from the same era. Warner Brothers knew that we pot smokers had black lights in our roach dens and dyed their vinyl accordingly. My 1974 copy of Todd Rundgren's Utopia is also black- light reactive (Bearsville BR 6954- manufactured by Warner Brothers).
In the deadwax of the Utopia LP:
Side A: BR-6954 31824-ID STERLING RL
Side 2: BR-6954 31825-IC

I found a "glowie"
Cleaning a stack of LPs in the spin clean, I walked to the back door to inspect the vinyl in daylight. I noticed a bit of splattering in Bachman Turner Overdrive II- so I knew I had one of those black light splatter vinyls.
1973, A1 in both sides of deadwax. A Goodwill thrift shop find for $1, one scratch on side 1 track 1- otherwise EX condition.

In 1970 my roommate bought Alice Cooper - Love It To Death. Looked like any other black vinyl record until it was under a black light which were all the rage at parties back then. I happened to be under the influence of psychedelics the first time it was "black lit" and definitely did a double take at the turntable.
No collector I've spoken to knew of such a thing but it is interesting to hear that other records were pressed from similar vinyl.
