Dinah Washington ~ What a Difference a Day Makes a Mercury 1959 33⅓ Vinyl LP Recording Washed and Play-Tested in NM/NM Condition MGT-20479

Previously Owned and cared for by an audiophile or carefully curated by our media acquisition team.

This album has been inspected, washed, and play tested. Platter surface is bright, no scuffs or scratches. Playback is clear except for minor surface noise on side 1.  The platter surface looks to be in pristine condition; but the surface noise persists.  We cleaned this platter a number of times; the surface noise diminished with each cleaning.  We will continue to clean and test this album after the item is listed.  We believe that the remaining surface noise will dissipate with additional cleaning. The album jacket is in like new condition. This listing is offered with a stock photo, actual provided upon request.  

Although we attempt to thoroughly clean surfaces, some noise is unavoidable. Surface noise is not only due to dust on the platter surface but from a worn or dirty stylus. A worn stylus or worn grooves will also cause your tone arm to skate across the platter surface.
