I was watching one of the audiophile YT channels, (The
Audiopheliac, I think) and it mentioned a place were you can get
free high-quality downloads:  https://www.marecordings.com/

Exploring the basic site... the prices of the LPs just blow me
away.   I can't imagine paying those high prices and then
encounter a "pop" or "click" on the record!!!

The digital versions are quite nice and good enough, IMHO.

I made CDs out them.  I like about half the tunes on each
sampler.  They sound great with room speakers.
