The record
Year/Genre: 1969 Soul
Matrix #: ENS 1001
Condition: VG plays really well with no issues
Description: Released in 1969 on Stax’s Enterprise label, Hot Buttered Soul established Memphis-born Isaac Hayes as one of the most innovative figures in American music. At a time when most soul albums featured short, radio-oriented tracks, Hayes stretched songs into long, orchestrated performances, breaking commercial norms and reshaping the genre. The album’s success marked a turning point for Stax Records after the loss of its distribution deal with Atlantic, proving that ambitious, artist-driven projects could reach wide audiences. Its cultural influence extended into the development of funk, disco, and hip-hop, where Hayes’ style and arrangements were sampled for decades to come.

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).
