I went up to Chicago for Thanksgiving this year and my mother found some albums in a closet that she wanted me to go through.
I’ll update this post as I go through what I brought back with me to St. Louis.
For right now, I found these two inserts to be pretty neat. I’m sure Doc Hardy would agree!
There’s also a poster from Pink Floyd’s DSOTM but the album wasn’t there.

Somewhere along the line, I lost the pair of posters (wasn't it a pair? or was there just one? I don't remember any more!) in my German quad pressing of Dark Side of the Moon. Note that I am not insinuating anything
The posters were different than the normal ones -- not sure if it was 'cause it was German, or 'cause it was quad (or both)... but they were different. I know I had it or them on the wall in college days... I should've been more careful with 'em
A record was overheard saying stop needling me.

Oh, I was under the impression that the Okki Nokki got all that stuff out of your records. It drives me nuts to hear the pops and the ticks in the record(s) during playback. I use a squeaky clean record cleaning machine III along with Tergikleen mixed with distilled water for the wash and straight distilled water for the rinse. I’ve tried different brushes for the wash and rinse and it doesn’t seem to make any difference.
I’m happy to report that a few of the records are very quiet during playback thus far.

It has been a long time ago -- and it was the seventies.

Do they me wrong, it works like a treat on most all. But every now and then even a new record will have a pop on one area of one song. Few and far between but not sure what is the culprit.

It sounds very “quiet.” I have the same orchestral music on other albums and it isn’t so “quiet.”
I really have to turn up the volume to hear the music and any of the details. I cleaned it before playing it. It’s not without pops and ticks.
