Hello all,

I recently got my Rega P1 in the mail and I am extremely happy and can't stop listening to it, but I have an LP which I've found a peculiar issue with:

My brother who lives in Chile will often bring me back LPs of my favorite Latin American bands that you can't find in the US. He recently brought me back this beautiful Los Jaivas "Los Jaivas" LP and I was stunned. When I got the chance to play it first on my previous player, a JVC automatic turntable (forgot the model number) it would play up until a certain point in the first song and then the needle would pick up and go back home. I tried starting the record from different spots but it would always stop playing after that one point.

I hesitated to post my issue on the forum until I saw what would happen with the Rega. I played Side 1 (which worked fine with the JVC) and it sound great. Then I tried Side 2 (the troubled side) and it sounded really sped up and warbly. All of my other albums sound great so I don't think its the P1. Does anyone have any idea whats going on with this album?
