New vinyl and silent groove noise

It's a shame - fantastic recording but bloody shoddy pressing!

I agree, fantastic sound indeed. It's strange but if you look at the records under decent light (halogen for example) they don't look all one colour, if looks like they've been gone over with a paint brush, you'll see what I mean!

I'll take a look tomorrow....

What pressing is this you're talking about? (Yello - Toy)
Mine is dead silent (obviously regarding vinyl hash, pop, and clicks), completely flat and sounds absolutely top notch!
Mine is German made, Matrix numbers from side A:
4760259 A AF. BF V3346-0V AV Centraldubs
The "V"s are turned upside down, but i couldn't find a symbol for it on the iPad.

i doubt it, the hipsters don't play them, they play the download,

Will check the matrix, though I know the album says produced in Germany.

If you're into yello and like the vocals on Toy (mostly malia) then you should give Convergence with Malia and Boris Blank a listen. Excellent.

Yep, reckon at least 50% of new vinyl buyers don't even play them. Sad really.

Really? Why would anyone buy it and not play it? Saying that 2 of my students have asked my advice about buying a TT - and quickly changed their minds when it's been pointed out they need more than something that spins!
