This is a classic 1963 record. When you play it, just place it on your record player gently and use the needle to start the music. Make sure your record player is clean to get the best sound. Avoid exposing the record to direct sunlight or high - humidity areas, as this can damage it. To maintain it, use a soft record brush to clean the grooves regularly. When not in use, store it in a cool, dry place and keep it upright in a record sleeve to prevent warping.
