    Can you please enlighten me with the name of the album? (Just cover art doesn't inform everyone ;) ).

    Personally i hate when bands sell “signed” copies but don't actually sign the cover and instead sign the insert.  I want the cover signed

    I can't say "I hate it" when it comes to books because I have a some of both, but what you're saying is similar to when a "signed book" is actually a signed bookplate that's later laid in or glued onto the half title page.  It's just not the same as a signed book!

    That’s certainly a lame ass opinion.

    Sorry so long in responding, PJ_Soul , just saw this.  The album title (one I always thought as hilarious) is More Songs About Food and Buildings.  It has a great mix of TH vibe,  from the quirky nearly Dada like "Artists Only" to the spacious gorgeous, yet iconoclastic, "The Big Country".  I think it's one of there top two or three albums.

    Hmm. 
    Have you cleaned the record well?  Adjust tracking weight?  Got anti-skating?

    Also, sometimes even the best cleaning will not remove something wedged in the grooves.  Look with a magnifier.  One suggestion that worked for me with a similar problem was to VERY GENTLY push the wedged object out of the groove with the tip of a wooden tooth pick pushing along the groove, not against it or angular to it.  Some will object to this idea, but as a last ditch effort, I've had it work.

    That's aggressive!  Have you heard the wood glue method? I never tried it but people do it. 

    Mild soap on a light free rag,  worked in a circular motion in and out worked for me until I got an Okki.  Distilled water too.

    Definitely!  I've only done it a few times on lesser records.

    Never tried the wood glue method but I hear it works well.  Too much work for me though.  I figure if my spin clean isn't good enough to prevent a skip (some clicks on hard-to-find LP's I don't mind), I probably don't need the record.
