I wipe the dust off of every cover with clean, unscented baby wipes. I professionally clean the vinyl. (I also operate a Vinyl Record Cleaning business for your dusty/dirty records--if interested, send me a message).

Thanks! Why buy a first or early pressing and not a re-issue or a ‘re-mastered’ vinyl album? First and early pressings are pressed from the first generation lacquers and stampers. They usually sound vastly superior to later issues/re-issues (which, in recent times, are often pressed from whatever 'best' tapes or digital sources are currently available) - many so-called 'audiophile' new 180g pressings are cut from hi-res digital sources…essentially an expensive CD pressed on vinyl. Why experience the worse elements of both formats? These are just High Maintenance CDs, with mid-ranges so cloaked with a veil as to sound smeared. They are nearly always compressed with murky transients and a general lifelessness in the overall sound. There are exceptions where re-masters/re-presses outshine the original issues, but they are exceptions and not the norm.
First or early pressings nearly always have more immediacy, presence and dynamics. The sound staging is wider. Subtle instrument nuances are better placed with more spacious textures. Balances are firmer in the bottom end with a far-tighter bass. Upper-mid ranges shine without harshness, and the overall depth is more immersive. Inner details are clearer.
On first and early pressings, the music tends to sound more ‘alive’ and vibrant. The physics of sound energy is hard to clarify and write about from a listening perspective, but the best we can describe it is to say that you can 'hear' what the mixing and mastering engineers wanted you to hear when they first recorded the music.
Artist Biography
by Richie Unterberger The best group that South America produced during
the 1960s, and not merely a novelty item. Formed in Montevideo, Uruguay,
in the mid-'60s, the group relocated to Argentina in 1966 after winning
a contract with EMI Argentina. Their sole LP and a few singles show the
group to possess an uncanny ability to imitate early
songs without being that obvious about it. Almost all of their material
was original, sung in English by Polo Pereira, who (with a slight
accent) emulates 's early snarl more accurately than anyone else from the time. You can detect apparent reference points to early /Richards tunes like "Off the Hook," and more sophisticated works like ("Empty Harem" is complete with a "Paint It Black"-like guitar). The original lineup of
disbanded in 1967, although other configurations using the name
recorded a few more discs in the late '60s. In the '80s and '90s, reached a much greater international audience than they did in their heyday via internationally distributed reissues of their albums.
