Animals 2018 Mix LP - Mistracking?


I was wondering if someone could help me figure out if my needle is mistracking or if it’s just inherent in the recording. I don’t hear this on the HD stream, only on the vinyl. Still, I’m inclined to think it’s an acoustic drum buzz caught on the recording as it doesn’t show up anywhere else in the record with far more intricate bass sections. 

Side 1: Dogs
As after Roger sings the line “fly down south, and hide your head in the sand” there is a small drum fill, during the drum fill I hear a slight rattle in the right channel. 

If anyone can listen for it during their next listen, I’d greatly appreciate it. Vinyl version of the 2018 mix only please.

@drbalance Funny lately I have noticed sporadic mistracking on other albums, for example on some high level sax parts and even occasional IGD on rock records in the past few weeks (even though that part on PF Animals was clean)  I checked the alignment of my cartridge and sure enough it was a bit off!  Either I had initially set it up off center, or it had somehow drifted.  Perhaps I didn't tighten the cart bolts enough.  Who knows.   Not a bad idea to check cartridge alignment periodically I suppose. 

Mike at the In Groove mentioned that Animals has a 40% return for defect rate, higher than any other LP in years. Cheers,

Just ordered another from Amazon. Turns out it was a pressing defect. Very odd, I could have sworn it was just a drum resonating.  Never can be surprised by this hobby, even after 30 years. 

First listen last night to my copy, no defects. IMHO, it's outstanding and worth fighting thru any troubles to get a good copy.
