Melanie-Candles in the Rain audiophile vinyl rip

A vinyl rip of this 1970 LP using a Lyra Helikon SL cartridge into a custom built tube phono stage that was used in preference to a fully Naimed LP12 that I had side by side with this table.

There is a little surface noise (this was a $2 LP from a used store) but the warm, robust analog quality is there in abundance. The production of 'Lay Down' sounds very different from any of the other tracks, so do not judge the sonic quality of the rest of the album by this single track.

This is a reseed as Bittorrent lost my original seed. This version is without the clumsy Bitcomet padding files that the previous versions had.
