The record
Title: The Ritchie Family - American Generation
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1978, R&B, Disco, Philadelphia
Matrix #: MARLIN 2215
Condition: EX, sounds great, looks great (CC)
Cultural Facts:
- Personal Struggle By 1978 the original trio had been dismissed without warning, so the group name outlived the women who built it.
- Scene Ecology Record World noted the new singers were uncredited on the sleeve while hair and makeup still got printed credit.
- Media Narrative This landed just before the 1979 anti-disco backlash, when dance culture went from mainstream goldmine to public target.

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).
