Cultural Facts: [44]

  1. Cut Fast at Caribou Ranch: Elton and Bernie Taupin cut this album quickly at James William Guercio's Caribou Ranch in Colorado. The thin mountain air and the room's sound are part of the record's lore.
  2. The Bitch Is Back Was a Dare: The Bitch Is Back leaned into Elton's flashy public persona on purpose. Radio winced, fans loved it, and it became one of the album's defining singles.
  3. Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me Almost Stalled: Elton nearly shelved Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me because he hated his vocal. Gus Dudgeon and the band talked him into keeping the take that became a standard.

    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).
