bad pressings promote anti-vinyl sentiment

Indeed some 70's LPs lack vitality. I started a list of drab pressings to showcase how what we thought was good back in the day, is awful by today's recording standards. We had a magic switch back then to fix the problem. It was called "Loudness Contour". It's certainly not the vinyl medium at fault, but there was a time during the oil crunch that vinyl was recycled to include labels and impurities that added noise.
