Condition: VG (LM) | Members: Chicago (N/A) | Producer: James William Guercio
Cultural Facts: [31]
- Terry Kath's Quiet Closer: Guitarist Terry Kath only wrote one song on Chicago V, the acoustic Alma Mater that ends the album. He was the band's fiercest player live, but here he leaves a soft goodbye.
- Guercio's Caribou Ranch Pipeline: Producer James William Guercio was already funneling Chicago toward the Colorado studio world that became Caribou Ranch. The cleaner, radio-ready punch of Chicago V comes from that shift.
- A Hit While Nixon Was Still in Office: Saturday in the Park was climbing the charts in the summer of 1972, the same season as the Watergate break-in. The song's picnic-day optimism became a weird national contrast piece without anyone planning it that way.

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).
