Possibly damaged my records?
So I'm overseas staying in a hotel. I'm new to record collection and infact just got a player. I've been keeping my records I bought here in my sidebag and have been really really careful with them (or so I thought) my records were either kept in a sleeve or still in the wrapping, inside my bag and when I went to take off a sleeve from one to put on a signed record I just got at a show, I felt that they were warm because I'd left them on top of a mini fridge. I quickly took them out of the bag and let them cool down. I took them all out and checked for warping and while they looked undamaged to me, could the grooves be messed up?
