You may want to check your tracking force and anti-skate settings. I am fearful you may have lost your diamond? tip, elliptical or otherwise. You will need either a microscope or a higher magnification glass to be sure.

If you have school age children head off to their science lab and check out your stylus. You could also ckeck out your local audio dealer who specializes in vinyl as he might be a great help.

That sounds distinctly like needle meltdown. Don't play anything else until a dealer or knowledgable friend checks it out.

I concur.

This only happens with your LP's, correct?
