Our friend in vinyl Seth from SoundStageDirect has offered to help celebrate the CVR blog going over 1 million page views and I have two In The Groove record cleaning rollers to give away.  So, the 4th and the 5th email to this email address (rbenson30@wi.rr.com) with the words "SoundStageDirect" in the subject line will win an In The Groove record cleaner for their very own.  Limit one entry per email address!  Enter today!

In The Groove is a new ingenious record cleaning roller. Its patented material was designed by a surgeon for use in the operating room where it keeps surgical instruments close at hand. This patented material has been repurposed as one of the coolest record cleaning tools ever designed. The soft, sticky substance sinks deep down into the grooves, pulling out years of debris and removing ticks and pops from your vinyl. Place any LP on a flat surface and roll In The Groove on the record following the grooves. No fluids or cleaning agents needed. When it gets dirty, just rinse it off under the sink and blot it dry with a paper towel. The sticky surface will be good as new. Our highest recommendation for an entry-level record cleaning tool!
