To enjoy this vinyl LP, first, make sure your record player is clean and in good working condition. Gently place the 180g black vinyl on the turntable. Use the tonearm to carefully lower the needle onto the starting groove. Sit back and enjoy the mono sound of John Coltrane's amazing music. When you're done, lift the tonearm gently and return it to its rest. To keep the vinyl in great shape, always handle it by the edges to avoid fingerprints and scratches. Store it in a cool, dry place, standing upright in a record sleeve. If it gets dirty, you can use a record cleaning brush to gently remove dust from the grooves.
