I purchased a copy of Tedeschi Trucks Band on Fantasy label. It seems to sound okay, but I can't get past the care they took in pressing the record as far as the quality of the record rather than the sound. The starting track and one of the four sites feels more like rough sandpaper that goes in approximately quarter of an inch in one spot, I would say half of this record has this going from zero to a quarter of an inch. I've had a couple records that have had a rough edge and I mean the edge not going into the starting track which was not a problem I just touched it up with little emery cloth to take the sharp edge off, but in this case there's nothing I can do. I'm not willing to put my cartridge down on the starting track for fear of damage the diamond.I bought this at a small record shop and I'm curious if they're going to return it, I've had problems with records from larger stores Music Direct being one that exchange the record without a problem.
Any suggestions?
