Using this vinyl record is simple. Just place it on a turntable and gently drop the needle onto the starting groove. Make sure your turntable is set up properly and at the right speed (usually 33 1/3 RPM for an LP). When handling the record, always hold it by the edges to avoid getting fingerprints on the playing surface, as this can cause skipping or affect the sound quality. Store the record in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping. Also, keep it in its protective sleeve when not in use to protect it from dust and scratches. If you notice any dust on the record, use a soft, anti - static brush to gently clean it before playing. This will help you enjoy the great jazz and ambient music of the Pat Metheny Group's First Circle for a long time.
