To use this Tracy Chapman record, just place it on your turntable and let the needle gently drop onto the grooves. Enjoy the music! When handling the record, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting dirt on it. Also, be careful not to scratch the surface. After each use, store the record in its sleeve and keep it in a cool, dry place to prevent warping. Don't stack too many records on top of it to avoid pressure damage.
