Using this vinyl LP is easy. Just place it on your turntable carefully and use the tonearm to drop the needle on the edge of the record. Then sit back and enjoy the unique instrumental music. When handling the record, always hold it by the edges to avoid fingerprints on the playing surface. After each use, put it back in its sleeve to protect it from dust. Store the LP in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent warping. If the record gets dirty, you can use a vinyl record cleaning brush to gently remove dust and debris.
