Just got a used copy of Bach, Organ Works, Helmut Walcha, organist on Deutsche Grammophone vinyl. This is the only DG vinyl that I think I have and if they all sound like this, I won't buy any more. The album looks like new and has as much surface noise as a very worn and scratched album. I noticed the date is 1960. Too old? Anyone else experienced this with DG recordings? It's on heavy vinyl, probably around 180g. The recording behind all the noise seems reasonably good but has too much noise to enjoy. I noticed at least one person mention DG as good and another as bad. Anyone else want to comment?
