New LP with pops + crackle, What is expected?


I just purchased two LP's from Acoustic Sounds. A original master recording of Verse by Patricia Barber (45 rpm). The other was Big whiskey by Dave Mathews Band (33 rpm).
Well Dave Mathews is perfectly quite while the other has occasional irritating background sounds. I do not want to be a difficult customer but I am inclined to return it. Recently I had to replace Pop Pop by Rickie Lee Jones because of similar defects. What level of imperfections are we expected to except with new vinyl issues? (p.s.) the store has never given me any troubles exchanging LP's in the past and will most likely not this time.

What does everyone think?
