Cultural Facts:
- Scene Ecology Mark-Almond grew out of the John Mayall orbit, with Jon Mark and Johnny Almond carrying British blues players into a softer jazz-rock world built around sax, flute, guitar, and long-form mood pieces.
- Studio Lore Rising pushed the group’s sound toward extended, atmospheric arrangements, sitting closer to late-night jazz clubs and singer-songwriter introspection than heavy early-70s rock.
- Personal Struggle Johnny Almond later died of cancer in 2009, ending the life of a sax and flute player whose career quietly linked British blues, jazz-rock, and session work.

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).
