Cultural Facts:
-
Band Drama: Jeff Lynne tightened control after early lineup exits; Roy Wood had already left, and ELO shifted from collective vision to Lynne-led project.
-
Studio Lore: Massive orchestral sessions drove up budgets; Lynne obsessed over perfection, building layered productions that blurred band vs. studio creation.
-
Media Narrative: Critics often dismissed them as overblown, but radio success reframed the narrative—Lynne later became a go-to producer for rock royalty.

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).
