Cultural Facts:
-
Album Art: H.R. Giger’s cover brought underground sci-fi surrealism into mainstream rock packaging, later censored in some printings.
-
Studio Lore: Recorded as they launched their own label—ambition plus budget meant precision editing, big arrangements, and total control mindset.
-
Media Narrative: By ’73, prog had become both prestige and punchline; ELP sat at the center of the “virtuosity vs excess” argument.

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).
