This is a 1979 USA original mint LP record by John Cougar. It features a great mix of pop, rock, and blues music. To use it, just place the vinyl on your record player, drop the needle gently, and enjoy the music. When handling the record, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting fingerprints on it. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping. Also, use a proper record sleeve to protect it from scratches. And don't forget to clean the vinyl regularly with a record cleaning brush to keep the sound quality great.
