It’s not exactly vital but it helps a lot to keep your vinyl clean. I also use a cloth to wipe the dust off before I spin a tune, a special static one that attracts the dust, but still dust builds up on my records. Cleaning will help remove all those yucky fingerprints you generate through hot sweaty clubs and the nasty junk in the smoke machine fog. Also, you’ll probably notice an improvement in sound quality with a clean vinyl too!
If you using a home made mixture to wash them, as jdat said, watch out for things like mineral deposits. Distilled water, to mix with your alcahol or whatever, is really what you need for the job here as that’s had all the excess removed and is just pure water.
