I was in the process of ripping this album in when I gave up. There was just too much dust damage on the records. It was from The Great One, Jackie Gleason. It was 20 Instrumentals called All I Want For Christmas. Still one of the all time best covers...

At the holidays our bookgroup reads favorite passages & excerpts of the season that strike our fancy.
This year I chose one by Jackie Gleason that I found, at all places, on dailywav.com.
Would have loved to have heard the album rip, but now it gives me a reason to go record shopping. As if I needed a reason! :-D
I know the feeling. I've had a couple of Lps that bad this season as well.

Holy frijoles! They don't make covers like that anymore.
Somebody had ripped and posted this on the alt.binaries...christmas.mp3 newsgroup. I dl'd it if you need it. I have the vinyl too, but haven't tried to rip it yet.
I have the same album and my copy is also a scratchy mess. Guess it was played a lot!!
Re.dust damage, You need to get a record cleaner of the type that you use cleaning fluid with and then it hoovers it clean, I bought one of these and couldn't believe the difference it made, even to records that I thought were clean, it certainly made many previously unplayable records playable, really really amazing difference, the one I have is European and is called something like The Okkie Nokkie
