Cultural Facts: [12]
- Woodstock Was Their Fourth Gig: Mountain walked onstage at Woodstock in August 1969 with only a few shows behind them; it is usually counted as the band's fourth gig ever. Drummer Corky Laing joined right after the festival, replacing N.D. Smart, which made the lineup on this record.
- The Cabin Boy in the Title: Nantucket Sleighride is subtitled To Owen Coffin. Coffin was a teenage crewman on the whaleship Essex, sunk by a sperm whale in 1820. Adrift for months, the starving survivors drew lots, Coffin lost and was shot and eaten. The Essex story also inspired Moby-Dick.
- A British Political TV Theme: For years British viewers who had never heard of Mountain knew Nantucket Sleighride anyway. Its instrumental section was used as the opening theme for ITV's Sunday political program Weekend World, which ran from 1972 to 1988.

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).
