Whats on your turntable tonight?

@slaw - Funny you should mention the noise on "Little Honey". I pulled mine from the used bin at my LRS, but when I pulled it out of the outer sleeve, the record was still in sealed plastic wrap. I cleaned it before playing. I only have a Spin-Clean as I'm not too bothered by minor clicks/pops and a little noise. However, I did find the noise level on "Little Honey" to be pretty high, especially for a new, never played, record. Love the music as I'm a huge fan of Lucinda and Buick 6. But I'm disappointed with the noise level. 

FWIW:

I just listened to my previously very noisy lp of "Little Honey".

After my first try with my new US cleaner, the noise level dropped noticeably, there is a sense of a space in time that was not there before. There is just some inherently noisy vinyl that can't be totally renwed.

I'd say the noisy pressing level dropped maybe 20% on this unusually particularly noisy pressing.  (This one was a hard one I'm sure to try and bring back to life.)

I have faith that other lps will bring better results.

@reubent,

I just noticed your post. Sadly, there was a time around when "Little Honey" was issued that Lost Highway & New West pressings has noise issues.

My recent experience with the (lp) re-issues of Vic Chesnutt on New West are pretty damn good!

Since you bought your copy new, you should be able to return it for a cd?

Slaw, the John in my last post is John Prine.
