Cultural Facts:
-
Career Shift: XO was Smith’s first album for DreamWorks, giving him access to larger studios and allowing him to expand his formerly sparse recordings with piano, strings, layered vocals, and fuller band arrangements.
-
Family Story: “Waltz #2 (XO)” drew heavily from Smith’s complicated family life, particularly his relationship with his mother and stepfather, turning an uncomfortable family gathering into one of his most personal songs.
-
Studio Lore: Smith remained deeply involved in the recording himself, playing much of the guitar, bass, piano, drums, and other instruments while building densely layered arrangements that showed how far his sound had moved beyond the four-track intimacy of Roman Candle.

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).
