So, researched Discogs for a good pressing, bought it, and what the heck??? Surface noise I can't get rid of.

Hey, its vinyl.
Just some thoughts, but either you got burned with a bad pressing, or your vinyl needs cleaning with an ultrasonic machine, or there's a cartridge alignment problem. I have both an original 1979 issue and the Kevin Gray/Steve Hoffman remaster on an RTI pressing, and they're both pretty quiet, especially the RTI.
