MoFi tinged with distortion

Hi there,

I recently aquiered Aimee Mann's Bachelor No2 on Mobile Fidility's GAIN2 (Serial number 212) vinyl - stunning album.

What bothers me is that the vocals are slightly "tinged" with distortion... I have noticed this on the 'Lost in Space' album aswell. Other records play just fine...

What can cause this - is the resording meant to be like this? What is your findings?

Yours,
Dewald Visser

Play the same recording on CD to see if the distortion is present. If noise is on CD then mastering at fault.
Also, listen through headphones to eliminate your speakers (bad crossover component, etc.) as the culprit.
