Using this vinyl album is easy. Just place it on your turntable, gently drop the needle on the record, and enjoy the music. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting dirt on it. Keep it away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures as this can damage the vinyl. After each use, store it back in its gatefold sleeve to protect it from scratches. If you notice any dust on the record, use a soft vinyl brush to clean it before playing again.
