My old Marantz CD63SE cd player will play CD-R but not CD-RW media. Does
this have anything to do with dye colour or is it down to other factors?
The CDRWs I am using are dark blue. Is it possible to purchase CDRWs that
will play in otherwise non compatible players?


You might have more success with a newer player. Or by noy using
CD-RW/ Do you really need to? CD-R media only costs pennies.
