@bkeske,  Brian
The original monos are not cheap so I find these current remasters from the original tapes to be a good value.
I’ve changed my cleaning regemin somewhat in that instead of doing the pre-steam always, I now just US clean new records first, then if I find a need to go further, I’ll do the ’deep clean’.

The "Delta Time" lp is very dynamic! Still has some quiet ticks every now and then. I believe a steam will remove this.

BTW, "Down in Mississippi" on this lp, is such a different take compared to Terry’s version on "Puttin’ it Down".

Blues meets gospel.

Seek this one out!
Jim,

I thought (briefly) about buying the MFSL "Flag" but my WLP sounds SO good, I’m saving the money for others.
Aimee Mann "31 Today"  7"/45rpm

I bought this years ago because it was the only (vinyl) available from "#@%&*! Smilers". Still true today!
Hey Brian,

Speaking of Mott the Hoople, they do a tasty cover of "Sweet Jane".
Had the Classic Records 45 rpm "Aqualung" years ago before I had my flattener. Sent it back. Still have the MFSL and Steven Wilson remix.
It’s usually 3 to 5 thousand Jim. For as long as it's been available, you got a low number.
The Nude Party was enjoyable for content, the SQ was in the 7 to 8.5 star range.
Finished up the Steven Wilson box. For those of you who are fans, I'd say this is a must. My copy is quiet, flat, and SQ is great! I believe it is very fairly priced as well.
Ordered 30x /60x LED jewelers loup to aid in cartridge set-up......old eyes you know............
Back from my Little Buddy’s 4th b’day party. Now time to relax and mould into the listening chair.
BTW @boxer12,

(Damn) is in the dictionary, shouldn't be an issue with the moderators.
