The record

Title: Louis Armstrong – The ABC Collection
Year/Genre/City: 1976, Jazz, New Orleans, LA
Matrix #: AC-30012
Condition: EX

Cultural Facts:

  1. Scene Ecology: Armstrong came out of New Orleans brass-band culture and broke nationally after joining King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band in Chicago.

  2. Media Narrative: In 1964, “Hello, Dolly!” hit #1 and knocked The Beatles out of the top spot, a rare pop-chart crossover for a jazz elder statesman.

  3. Media Narrative: His public image as a smiling entertainer hid sharp opinions—he openly criticized U.S. treatment of Black students during the Little Rock crisis.

    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).
