Definitive Audiophile pressings

The 100 page paper on aqueous vinyl cleaning.
You can Google it and find it pretty easy. He is on a few vinyl forums but avoids this NG gang for some reason 🤔
Neil is the author.

OCD AF but the Dow cleaning agents and recommendations he writes about are truly remarkable in the cleaning arena.
I tried the AIVS stuff and other snake oils.
No contest IMO.
Also recommend you buy that record cleaning brush; he gives Amazon links to everything.

I love it, works great!
 
Gotta hand it to RCJP: After my recent problems, I asked them to double box my latest shipment, and it was packed so well I think it could have been dropped out of the plane and nothing would have been damaged.

So thankfully, this arrived safely:

I'd like to formally volunteer to test whether Steely Dan can survive being thrown out of a plane.

Bastard! Haha. Think you must have bought this away from my cart! Glad you got it. I wasn’t ready to pull the trigger but this is on my long-term wishlist. Love the art, design, and of course the track list. Would love to hear your thoughts once you’ve had a listen.
 
One note of amusement for me. I don't know if I ever realized the right channel hit of record crackle on the intro to Another Brick in The Wall is actually on the song. I tried to clean it, then heard it on my other copy and briefly thought my needle was mistracking, then played the digital and heard it there and literally yelped "MotherFUCKERS!" out loud to no one.
My dogs were concerned.
But to be fair they're concerned with a lot of things I do on a day to day basis.
They need to chill the fuck out.
 
You guys give kids too much credit, my 3 year-old nephew is dumb as hell, he’d be dead already if it weren’t for my brother and sister-in-law keeping tabs on him all the time. He also regular shits himself and falls down A LOT.
Yeah you think that, but then one day when everyone else is out of the room they'll just turn to you and look you in the eyes and be like "You eat your feelings and fill the gaping maw in your soul with intrinsically worthless consumables in order to take your mind off the horrible horrible truth that ultimately life has no meaning."
Then they'll eat a ball of playdough and fall off the table.

Or just makes up a song called “Uncle Deric Has A Bubble Butt” which I will pretend doesn’t bother me but then later when I am alone stare obsessively at my giant ass in the mirror while a single tear rolls down my cheek.
