@tomic601 ,

It seems very often you mention giving away a Basis here, a Denon there...

What a giving person!
BTW, put me on your list.
"Pretty Good"....wow, how does this sort of lyric come from a then, (new to us) artist and decades later, and have just as much significance?
I officially joined the ranks of the unemployed. Go stand in line tomorrow.
Forgot to mention.. have been listening to Grant Lee Buffalo "Fuzzy" MOV

Well back to work tomorrow.
As some US cleaning posters seem as their priority,( cleaning the maximum lps at once) is not a great way of optimizing the positive effects of US cleaning. The very cleaning method they invested in isn’t being used to it’s maximum potential.

This is Vinyl Playback people! It requires the very best an end-user can offer.
Divine Fits  "A Thing Called Divine Fits"
Nicole Atkins  "Slow Phaser"
Aimee Mann  "Bachelor No. 2"
Glen Hansard  "Drive All Night"
@reubent,

 If your a GH fan, I hope you have his tribute to Jason Molina on vinyl. If not, you should get it soon.

Cheers.
today so far...

Fran Healy  "Wreckorder"
Big Thief  "Capacity"
The Stray Birds  "Magic Fire"
Pieta Brown  "One and All"
Kelly Hogan  "I Like to Keep Myself in Pain"
Kapt. Kopter &/the (Fabulous) Twirly Birds  "S/T"
@mbd3,

"Rush" does have great music on it. Not a bad movie either. Love how they worked "Bridge of Sighs" in.
@noromance ,

No problem. My copy is basic black.

FWIW, Fremer posted  while back that this wasn't an issue now.

I haven't found it to be one either.
In honor and memory of John Prine.... I freshly cleaned his S/T lp. 

So sad that he survived cancer, twice, yet this corona virus took him out.

He will be missed and always loved.
Concrete Blonde  "S/T"
Lyle Lovett  "My Baby Don't Tolerate"
Aimee Mann  "Mental Illness"
Valerie June  "The Order Of Time"
Son Volt  "Notes Of Blue"
@bkeske,

Another vote for the Rega, if you use one of their carts, the 3 point mounting makes set-up fool proof.
Chris Isaak  "Wicked Game"  the UK/lp...BEST!
John MayerTrio "Try!"  ( although he's a (Man-Whore), he's got the groove!

I have the Universal reissue from 20 ? years ago and it sounds great! Has the flame cover. This may be one of those recordings that will always sound good.
I saw them, I guess 20 years ago?> I was gifted the tickets. Upon listening at the show, there was a portion that introduced the players.... when Steve Ajerrie was introduced,I was dumbfounded. Up until then, I thought it was Steve Perry. 
You have a (WPP) white person problem when a device/app tells you what you should know.
loomisjohnson,

Have you compared it to "Let It Be" (Naked)?

I'd go for "Abbey Road" or "Rubber Soul" or even "Revolver" (if was recorded better). "A Hard Day's Night" is underrated, IMO.

Happy Listening!

If you call staying in debt, "best thing we do".
