After Crowded House broke up, they released "Recurring Dream" a compilation of all their hits. Filling out the set, though, were three new songs. I was able to source the vinyl version, but unfortunately it was not in good enough condition to share. But I still wanted to get the three bonus tracks out.
Enter the 7" 45rpm of "Not The Girl You Think You Are", the standout bonus track. Why not rip that and then add the three RD tracks as a bonus.
Why not, indeed. Here you go.
Capitol CL 776

Better Be Home Soon (3:27) *

This is what I do in general. Not every step is done for all rips:
LP > Rega P1 with Ortofon Super 30 > TC-750LC > E-Mu 0202 > Adobe Audition 3 (AA) @ 96kHz 32bit float > Manual click removal in AA > Click Repair set @ 20 > AA used to balance L/R > (for MONO: Equalizer (from the ClickRepair guy) used to combine L+R >) AA to split tracks, fade in/out, and for manual click removal > for 24bit: use AA to truncate the 32bit file >
for 16bit: Izoptope RX Advanced to resample the 32bit file to 44.1kHz > and then to dither to`16bit using MBIT+ >
All > Trader's Little Helper to FLAC and (for 16bit: sector align if necessary, pad) > MP3 Tagger to edit tags.
"16bit" = 16bit at 44.1kHz
"24bit" = 24bit at 96kHz
