I just cleaned an LP with dish soap and a soft cloth for the first time. I found it at a thrift store today; Arlo Guthrie's "Hobo's Lullabye" album. I'm not buying many records at this point, but the second song on the A side is Steve Goodman's City of New Orleans. I couldn't pass that one up. For a record missing the paper sleeve, it was in surprisingly good shape. (I was bad; I stole a sleeve from some generic Christmas album that was already in poor shape to put it in.)
The record still has a lot of clicks and pops, but I didn't try playing it before the wash, so I don't know how much it helps. It certainly looks cleaner.
I'm going to get my guitar out and learn the chords for that song.
