I've tons of LPs lying around for about 20 years. That's when my daughter was born, and I sold my stereo because we needed the money. The approximately €10,000 saved our asses. Today we have our own house and my momentary listening space doesn't have room for a record player, but my listening space will be moving into my home office sooner or later, then there will be plenty of space.

My turntable only comes out on the dining room table for needledrops and the records are all under the bed

Not present on my FLAC rip and I don’t think VinylStudio’s correction algorithm would have removed it. Perhaps the remastering got rid?

Have a listen. This is the intro to Back In N.Y.C. You can hear the hum start after 1 second if you turn it up.

I’ll check this later but I can’t hear any hum on my Living Room HiFi from my FLAC needledrop. Maybe it needs headphones

I am very careful not to disturb the tracking weight and bias settings.

Definitely easier to hear on headphones. You can download the wav file from the inserted audio if you like.

Lake was one of the biggest bands in and around Hamburg in the 80s. I went to at least 20 concerts. Once, I was hired to set up the sound system for them at the Fabrik. I was so successful that we celebrated New Year's Eve together. A huge party with things I wouldn't do today.

Finally someone who knows this band . Every song is a catchy tune and an absolute masterpiece. I saw them live twice in the 80s (in Flensburg). Super exceptional musicians with unique vocals. Unfortunately, the following albums can't keep up with this one.

In my opinion a fantastic album, maybe the best of Genesis, at least for me. But i´m unsure...

"Wingenfelder" are the main part of "Fury in the Slaughterhouse". Best german band imho. Sorry for the non german speakers.
