The record


Title: Mike Rutherford - Smallcreep's Day
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1980, Progressive, Art Rock Prog, Guildford, England 8/26
Matrix #: PB 9843
Condition: VG+, sounds great, lots of light marks (CC) | Members: Mike R (50' - Alive) | Producer: David Hentschel
Cultural Facts:

  1. Family Ties: Rutherford later co-wrote “The Living Years” around unresolved father-son grief, after his father died before Rutherford’s son was born, making family regret one of his most personal themes.
  2. Studio Lore: Smallcreep’s Day was built partly around Peter Currell Brown’s surreal factory novel, turning Rutherford’s first solo LP into a strange worker’s-journey concept piece outside Genesis.
  3. Player Spotlight: Rutherford brought in Noel McCalla for lead vocals and Simon Phillips on drums, keeping himself mostly in the role of writer, bassist, and guitarist instead of solo frontman.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
