NEGATRON

I have LP's of Late regristration and Collage Drop-out that both sound terrible, really raspy on the vocals. Almost unlistenable. Sometimes I wonder if its just my turntable trying to tell me something! Same thing with a couple of Outkasts earlier albums... I don't own much hip-hop, so put it down to similar production? but sounds like it might just be the pressing itself. Damn shame as I just don't play those records, as all I end up hearing is the bad notes and I'm far from being one of those fussy sound guys...
