Scratch filters such as that in Goldwave are excellent; there is no
reason not to use them on a whole album. I tried subtracting the
'cleaned' version from the 'raw' one and was left with just the
clicks and scratches on a background of perfect silence, thus showing
that the filter didn't remove any music.

Take a known good recording with high quality transients, say a chamber
music recording made with DPA 4006 mikes. Pass it through a declicker,
notice the number of reported "fixed clicks". End of story, except that
there is incredibly poor audio around that will become less offensive via
good automated declick.
