Abe, I like your taste in music, too bad the VU album is not a better recording. The required "Kind Of Blue" that we all have in at least two versions, if not more. "Back to Back" and of course I'm sure you have "Side to Side".
For the OP, the levels on LPs vary a lot. Coming straight off my phono preamp, I was tripping the Clipping light on the Linestreamer+. I had considered getting some fixed attenuators , but the differences in LP output has made fine tuning a necessity.
If you don't like the free programs, try out Vinyl Studio. It only costs around $30, and while there is a learning curve, it is intuitive, and becomes really easy to use. It has declicking, a way to put in track breaks, allows you to get the track listings and album covers from Discogs or other sources. It is the complete package. I have also used it to record live shows off of radio or Sirius.
