Cultural Facts:
-
Political Science: Wrote it as a critique of the drug economy and the glamorization of hustling—using the film’s world to argue against it.
-
Studio Lore: Mayfield ran his own operation (Curtom) and controlled the sessions, a rare level of Black artist ownership in early-’70s soundtrack culture.
-
Media Narrative: The soundtrack often outshone the movie in public memory, becoming a reference point for how music can reframe a film’s meaning.

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).
