Can I just ask owners of the vinyl of this particular album if their copy is relatively noisy? There seems to be a pretty constant undercurent of crackles throughout. They're not particularly loud, but clear enough to be a little distracting. In particular, it can be noticed on the quiet first minute or so of 'Oh My Love'.

shouldn't be i am surprised at that

I was too. The songs themselves sound better than on the already pretty decent sounding CD version, but there seems to be this crackle issue. I've done a bit of googling and I've seen this point made elsewhere. Just curious.
The Mute pressings of the last two albums are sublime.
I'm right in thinking that the self-titled album and 'Late Night Final' aren't available on vinyl, aren't I?
