Life is too short. If you want to hear that track again, play it dammit!
Now, if it is truly some rare title . . .

Time between playing the same LP
To all vinyl lovers,
I have always believed that an LP should have a 24 hour grace period to cool down before being played again. Reason being that the plastic is still soft from the heat generated by the stylus going along the groove and replaying the LP while it is still "warm" will distort the groove permanently and cause distortion.
Is this an old wives tale or is there truth in it?
I'd be interested to know, as I do discipline myself to give a record a "rest" and I sometimes feel that I would like to hear that particular piece again.
Your comments very welcome.
