Hi all,
Just wanted to let you guys know that I recently purchased 2 x Led Zeppelin Classic pressings from Acoustic Sounds and had to send both of them back. Not something I wanted to do as it cost me over AU$40!
I have many 30 y.o. records in my collection and none sound as bad as these. It's like there is sand in the grooves! And not just at either end of the record but the whole way through.
I also have Peter Gabriel Shaking the Tree on a Classic pressing, also from Acoustic Sounds, and that has ticks and pops the whole way through on all 4 sides. I'll keep that album and hope that one day when I acquire a RCM, that the problem can be fixed with a thorough clean.
I might add that my email to Classic re the Zep albums was never answered.
Cheers!
Mark
