Using this vinyl record is simple. Just place it on a compatible turntable at 45 rpm and let the music play. When handling the record, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting fingerprints on the vinyl, which can affect the sound quality. Store the record in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat to prevent warping. When not in use, keep it in its gatefold sleeve to protect it from dust and scratches. Enjoy your music with this great re - issue from Hum!
