Cultural Facts:
- Personal Struggle: Elton was still publicly closeted in this era, carrying private sexuality inside a business that sold flamboyance but punished honesty.
- Studio Lore: The album was recorded at Château d’Hérouville in France, the studio nickname giving Honky Château its title and loose exile atmosphere.
- Band Drama: This was the first Elton LP built around his road band, shifting power away from session polish and into the players who had to prove it every night.

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).
