Trouble tracking new Norah Jones LP

Anyone having problems tracking the new Norah Jones LP, Live From Austin City Limits? Picked it up at Waterloo in Austin and can't track it with Linn Majik set-up. Indicate what TT, cartridge, arm you running and if you are seeing the problem. The BASS on cut 1 side 1 and on the LP in general is HUGE! Maybe a bad copy of the LP? Thanks

Did you check the vinyl? Any track in particular besides the first? What pressing do you have?

Since Norah-One-Note-Jones, can only sing the one note, shouldn't be a problem.... Here a bit of one song, you've heard the whole LP.... :-)

The little sucker jumps right out of the grooves on the some of the bass notes; sometimes a good 3/16" of the radius. I do not use damping fluid on the Schroeder. Tracking at 1.8 gms.
Try it with damping fluid. Tracking hideously warped records and outsized groove modulations are what fluid damping helps do best.

I've been trying to figure out what dampening fluid is for. I have a VPI Scoutmaster w/sig arm and it came with the fluid. Can someone enlighten me? (sorry that it's off topic)

I have the new 180 g and it jumps so much I can't track even one song. finished the first side in about 10 minutes! And btw, 09rdking, that's why they make chocolate and vanilla ;~)
