Matrix #: MAGL 5042
Condition: VG+ Plays clean
Description: Flying Colours was released in 1981 by Matchbox, part of the British rockabilly revival that surged in the late 1970s and early ’80s. Formed in Middlesex, England, the band carried the torch of 1950s rock ’n’ roll into the new wave era, landing chart success across the U.K. and Europe. Unlike many revival acts, Matchbox managed to tour internationally, even performing behind the Iron Curtain, showing how the raw energy of rockabilly cut across cultural divides during the Cold War. Flying Colours reflects that period when retro styles found fresh life alongside punk and new wave on U.K. airwaves.

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).
