Bad vinyl

I recently bought 3 albums and each one had to return due to bad pressings, Dizzy, Diana Krall and Bowie. I was so disappointed, 3 out of 3 were bad, really bad. The store didn't have other copies so I bought Jeff Beck and Nora Jones new albums and they sound perfect, btw, not bad work either.

That at is a 60% return ratio. Anyone else experiencing the same?

So it's just the peace and quiet then.

I’ve had good luck with new vinyl (from Barnes and Noble mostly), until the other day when I bought the new release "Bach Trios" Yo-Yo Ma, Thiele, Meyers thing. WAY too much surface noise, so back it went no questions asked…bought the CD instead and it sounds great. Note that the new Krall vinyl is 2 discs (sounds great by the way), one side being blank so now I can check my skating, although I'm not sure what I'm checking for. The blank side is also great for those times when you want some peace and quiet.
