Cultural Facts:

  1. Banned From the Talent Show for Winning: As a teenager Otis left school to help support his family, digging wells and pumping gas in Macon, Georgia. He won the $5 prize at DJ Hamp Swain's "Teenage Party" talent show 15 weeks in a row, until he was finally barred from entering.
  2. He Was Only Supposed to Be the Driver: In 1962 Otis drove guitarist Johnny Jenkins, who had no license, to Stax. With time left over, Otis sang, and "These Arms of Mine" won him a deal.
  3. The Survivor on the Seat Cushion: When Otis' plane crashed into Wisconsin's Lake Monona in December 1967, Bar-Kays trumpeter Ben Cauley was the only survivor, clinging to a seat cushion in the freezing water until rescuers finally reached him. He went on to help rebuild the Bar-Kays.

    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).
