Do you have a VPI cleaner? I have a copy I'd be happy to send your way, but it needs a little cleanup.

Just found it, it's pretty beat up. But the sleeve and the art are decent. PM me your address and I'll post it next time I sell something on discogs.

I've been thinking about getting one of the spin cleaner as most of the records I but are second hand. They seem to get good reviews. Would be interested in other people's experience here.

Hate spending $40+ on a record I already on via CD and have MP3s and streaming, but come on, it's too good.

So side 2 of cat power " you are free" does not sound so great. There is this extra low hum and bass rumble between tracks that obviously hangs there throughout the song. Side 1 sounded pristine and lovely. Is that a bad pressing or is something fucked with my system?

Also, yes, I know i could just put in a cd so shut up

Even though I live in New England, I've never been. I have ordered online from them before (most recently, the Sigur Ros
"Takk" reissue), and they have excellent customer service. Nice people!

I think I will start a vinyl collection again in 2016. Expect lots of questions Joey, Start, Simple, etc.

First bit of advice: walk away very slowly.
