For the info of Don & others, Rockby Electronics flogs a little phono -> USB converter which looks like it would do a reasonable job, see

Only if you care about sound quality, noise and distortion, something the OP said he doesn't. (and obviously doesn't given what he bought) No need to worry about incorrect playback EQ in such cases either, you'll still get identifiable sound of some sort.
