is there something wrong with this kind of stuff? it's inexpensive, and always works well enough for me?

If it works for you, then there's nothing wrong, and it doesn't look like it'll harm the record.
The general thinking with RCMs is that you need to vacuum the dirt out of the grooves, and that washing/brushing isn't enough. it's probably only an issue with really dirty 2nd hand records however.

I just purchased Tool's Undertow yesterday. I thought I didn't really care too much for this album (compared with their other output), hence why I'd never owned a physical copy of it up till now - but after a few spins - I'm really digging it

Bought a couple of records this weekend:

Jack White Blunderbuss
White Stripes - White Blood Cells
Elvis Costello - This Year's Model
Rolling stones - Voodoo Lounge


Blunderbuss sounds great on vinyl. Anyone know if that was an analog master?

Found an early press of Vitalogy for 45 bucks today. Thoughts?

And I finally snagged a long sought after copy of ACDC's Powerage. Also I found an original off Come's Eleven:Eleven. Chud you might like them, Massachuchetts punk rock royalty. Imagine a respectable Hole.

I've got both. Original Vitalogy pressing is much better than remastered Vitalogy.

Did anyone here pick up the new QOTSA record? Any comments on the sound quality?
I've heard bad things about some of their pressings (Rated R reissue specifically) so I'm hesitant to pick-up Like Clockwork.

Think it's worth 45?

Im planning on getting the last album. The booklet looks awesome and its just so poor on the cd edition.

You could probably get it for cheaper now that the reissues have flooded the market.
Is it worth $45? I'm the wrong guy to ask....In my lifetime I've own 3 original LPs, 2 original CD, 1 standard reissue LP, 1 super deluxe reissued LP, 1 remastered deluxe CD and a Vitalogy Remaster Radio Sampler CD. So that's like over $400 worth of Vitalogy. However if I had to own 1, it would be the original pressing on vinyl. :D

One might say that you find this album to be..............vital.

I picked up Like Clockwork last week, and honestly I think the vinyl sounds great. To be fair though I haven't listened to this on any other format
