The record

Year/Genre: 1986 Pop / New Wave
Matrix #: OE 40345
Condition: Good

Description:
Formed in London, Culture Club rose to global fame in the early ’80s with lead singer Boy George blending androgynous style and soulful vocals. From Luxury to Heartache, recorded in Montreux and New York and released in April 1986, reflects a turbulent period marked by George’s personal struggles and a shift in production toward Arif Mardin’s polished pop-reggae fusion Tracks like “Move Away,” “I Pray,” and “Sexuality” showcase Caribbean rhythms and glossy synth textures over heartfelt lyrics—highlighting the band’s ability to evolve as British pop intersected with mainstream American adult contemporary.

    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).
