If you have any clicks, pops, scratches, dust at all then I would strongly urge yopu to look ta using a piece of software called ClickRepair. It was developed by a retired Australian mathematician when he was digitizing his vinyl - he started out with manual editing repairs but soon realized he could automate the process with algorithms. And a darn fine job of it he made too - I used ClickRepair with my vinyl transfers and it produced almost magical results. See this sticky thread: Click/pop removal - ClickRepair software
And if you are then really serious about getting the very best quality out of the vinyl, you should then let the LP cool down before re-playing it to record it. The act of dragging the stylus through the vinyl grooves heats up the vinyl and distorts it slightly - hence the need for the cool-down. But only ultra-purists do this 
With a good eye you should be able to spot the louder parts of an LP’s groove - more activity in the vinyl in those parts.
