Ah, the memories of my family's record collection, a treasure trove of melodic delights. Alas, we were not the most conscientious caretakers of these cherished musical relics. I must admit, I bear a significant portion of the blame for the demise of countless albums, as my handling left much to be desired. Oh, the regret that fills my heart as I recall the fate I unwittingly bestowed upon those vinyl companions.
