To enjoy this Vinyl LP, first make sure your record player is clean and in good working condition. Place the vinyl gently on the turntable, center it, and drop the needle on the starting groove. Listen at a comfortable volume. When you're done, lift the needle carefully and return it to its rest. Store the vinyl in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to prevent warping. Keep the album cover clean to protect the vinyl inside. Handle the vinyl by its edges to avoid fingerprints and scratches on the playing surface.
