rantan Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I received 2 albums from Amazon on Thursday, both had dirt and scuff marks on them. They readily agreed to give me an account credit but they insisted that I return them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably so they can resell it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have cleaned it on the US 5 times. similar to you JJ, but side 2, tracks 2 and 3 have the annoying click coming out of the right channel all the way thru. drives me fkn crazy, unlistenable. I might try one more copy if I can get one as it sounds like decent pressings exist, but I am almost done Bloody Frustrating ain't it! As a footnote, my copy of Selling England By The Pound ( the one that had a 7mm warp) that l have had between 2 plates of glass for 2 weeks; has now reduced to a 3mm warp. I was going to leave it under the patio which has late afternoon sun, but for experimentation; I decided just to leave in my listening room and see what happens. I thought slow and easy was the go and if that didn't work then in the sun. Last result, was in the oven (shudder). Wasn't sure if on the sun/oven would damage the grooves? But in the room seems to be working. I wil turn it over and wait another 2 weeks and see what l end up with. Fingers crossed, no crackle and pops.

Yes. now that it is local amazon, no issues with $60 freight back to them that they have to cover. That was why they used to say, don't return as it cost them too much $$ in return postage. Just drop it off for free at the local post office to be returned. very easy now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume they were noisy, as many times direct of scuff marks don't effect the play - most GZ pressings for example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

needlerunner Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 2nd one. Was not going to buy this cd, because a lot of it is on the Live Albert Ed. But in a drunken stupor l ordered it in (come on, how many do the same?) Glad l did fantastic production, having just playing it for the first time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even the guys wore platform shoes. Flares. 3 piece suits. All wonderful memories. Better than jeans and T-shirt’s worn everywhere today. Some individuality I thinks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
