That all looks pretty good. If you have suitable software, though it
would still be a good idea to get rid of everything below 20Hz - there
really is some speaker-flapping stuff going on there. Audacity is
freeware that will take care of it if you have nothing else.

(Incidentally I just had a proper listen to the original files, and
everyone was dead right - the hum didn't start 'til you hit the
groove. Still no idea how that could be, apart from it actually being
recorded on the disc which seems very unlikely)
