Record-playing Rituals?


I'm curious what everybody's riuals are when listening to albums. How often do you clean the records? Every Time? How often do you clean and lubricate the stylus? Every time?

By the way, Albert, a very nice gesture on the RR fluid. I guess that was going to be one of the party favors at the BBQ that was to be held at your place till the fickle Khan moved it to the place with the more expensive system???
Khan, sorry, I blamed you incorrectly for Kitch 29's infidelity! My apologies, sir.
The name "Image Restorer" was replaced in 1994 with the name "Vinyl Wash". It just shows how long some of you have been using it! Thanks to all.

Kind regards,

Sorry Brian. Of course you are right about the name change. I was one of the very first people to switch to RR fluid, having tried the home brews and name brands of the day. In fact, I gave away a gallon of a competitors cleaner after trying a small sample bottle of the Record Research.

I guess it has been seven years since this became my reference LP cleaner. My offer to share with Detlof was almost instinctive, I have given samples to many of my regular "music night" visitors. None of them ever cleaned an LP with another product after hearing the results.
Wow, Albert! Thankyou!!! I wished I had so much kindness in my instincts as well ! Cheers,
