Cultural Facts:

  1. Studio Lore Cosmic Sounds was built as a full zodiac concept record, with Mort Garson composing the music and Cyrus Faryar delivering the mystical spoken-word narration.
  2. Synth Pioneer Paul Beaver’s Moog synthesizer work makes this an early electronic-psychedelic artifact, released before synths became common tools in rock, pop, and soundtrack recording.
  3. Personal Struggle Paul Beaver died suddenly in 1975 at age 49 from a cerebral aneurysm, cutting short the life of one of the musicians who helped introduce the Moog to West Coast studio culture.

    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).
