To use this vinyl record, first make sure your record player is clean and in good working condition. Gently place the record on the turntable and use the tonearm to lower the needle onto the groove. When you're done listening, carefully lift the tonearm and remove the record. As for storage, keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Try to store it vertically to prevent warping. If you notice any dust on the record, use a soft, anti - static brush to clean it. And be careful when handling the cover with the minor creases to avoid making them worse.
