    Last one I got/bought was McCartney's "Kisses On The Bottom". But that was back in what, 2012? Lol!

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Our local Target has a pretty respectable selection of vinyl. The wife drug me in there one day for something and course I wandered to the electronics section. She found me about 1/2 hour later thumbing through LP's.

    I told her vinyl will OFFICIALLY be mainstream again when you see it in Wal*Mart.

    The Carpenters nailed it every time...

    I bought a number of records from Target. most of them were actually good quality, my copy of DSOTM is great. Kinda hit or miss though, I have a few warped Beatles records from Target, Walmart and Barnes and Noble.
    I don't buy vinyl from them anymore. I like buying used, as I don't want to roll the dice on getting a $25-30 warped record.

    Return them. I bought a DSOTM from Target that had so much surface noise it was basically unlistenable. They took it back, begrudgingly.

    It is too late, that was a couple months ago. If I buy more vinyl there in the future, and it is no good, I certainly will. None of them are bad enough that they won't play or are unlistenable. Just enough to be noticeable.

    Stupid, but funny joke John. Made me laugh a little.

    I have a big collection of "Lifescapes" CD's from Target. All are DDD and very well engineered. Latin, Jazz, Cajun, Piano, Sax, etc., etc.
