Cultural Facts:
-
Released in 1973 and quickly became Denver’s first #1 album on the Billboard 200, with a long chart run (176 weeks).
-
It spotlights his songwriter side: “Leaving on a Jet Plane” was written by Denver and hit #1 in 1969 via Peter, Paul and Mary—same folk-pop lane as Jim Croce / Cat Stevens fans.
-
In 1975, Denver’s CMA Entertainer of the Year win triggered backlash; presenter Charlie Rich famously set the winner envelope on fire onstage—often cited as “crossover vs. Nashville” tension.
-
Denver later started Windsong (mid-’70s); Bill Danoff (co-writer of “Country Roads”) was involved via Starland Vocal Band—good context for fans of James Taylor / Gordon Lightfoot-era singer-songwriters.

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).
