Cultural Facts: [3]
- Ariel Bender Arrives: Luther Grosvenor of Spooky Tooth joined under the stage name Ariel Bender after Mick Ralphs left for Bad Company. Ralphs still plays on Roll Away the Stone here, so the album bridges two Mott guitar eras on one disc.
- Same Model as Roxy Music: Cover model Kari-Ann Muller is the same Kari-Ann who posed for Roxy Music's 1972 debut sleeve. Photographer John Brown and designer Roslav Szaybo built the blue collage face around her for this 1974 Columbia package.
- Last Studio Stand: The Hoople was Mott's final studio album with Ian Hunter before the first breakup. Golden Age of Rock 'n' Roll and Roll Away the Stone were the radio hooks as the band closed the original glam chapter.

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).
