Description:
The Crusaders, rooted in Houston jazz but refined in Los Angeles, delivered a soulful fusion of funk and jazz on Images.

Tracks like “Bayou Bottoms” and “Cosmic Reign” highlight the group’s seamless blending of improvisation and rhythm, reflecting late‑’70s fusion’s cultural shift toward danceable jazz. For collectors exploring the crossover era of jazz innovation, this pressing offers a lively snapshot of a genre expanding its audience and influence.

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).
