Classic Records / Procol Harum

During my most recent vinyl spending spree I acquired from Classic Records a 200 gram 'Quiex SV' release from Procol Harum. On one side of the record "A whiter Shade of Pale" is cut at 45 rpm and the other side traditional 33 1/3. That's it, only one song. I can't stop listening to this cut....when I close my eyes its like the recording stuido is in my great room. These people at CR really know their analog...It is amazing. If you can, pick up a copy. I assure you that you won't be dissapointed. This one song will become one of the 'black vinyl discs' you use to convert back those who were taken in to the dark side of digital!
Regards,
quincy

Over the years I've bought a large number of their titles. My defect rate was small until they went to the new vinyl formula. I believe it's called Quiex. Anyway, I purchased a few of the 200 gram releases using this new vinyl. I liked the sound, but the surfaces have been a problem. I went through four copies of the Norah Jones release and finally gave up.

Until they give us the quality surfaces they used to they've lost me as a customer.
