To use this vinyl LP, first make sure your record player is clean and in good working condition. Place the vinyl gently on the turntable and use the tonearm to carefully lower the needle onto the starting groove. Enjoy the music! When you're done, lift the tonearm and turn off the record player. To keep your vinyl in great shape, always handle it by the edges to avoid fingerprints and scratches. Store it vertically in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If it gets dirty, use a soft, anti - static record brush to gently clean the grooves. This will help maintain the sound quality of Jenny Lewis' amazing album for a long time.
