Cowboy Junkies on Classic Records Trinity Sessions

Totally disappointed. Crackles and pops throughout the disc. One so loud as to make me just about jump out of my chair.(first play right out of the jacket after a cleaning in the VPI) All this enjoyment for $40.00. I put on the old redbook CD and it sounds better than the record, go figure. I am starting to shy away from vinyl. I will keep my table for the cherished older pressings and flea market finds but new pressings are out. They should really be trying to do a better job, especially for the prices of this "audiophile quality vinyl".
