The record

Title: Neil Young – Trans
Year/Genre: 1982, Experimental Rock/Electronic
Matrix #: GHS 2018
Condition: EX

Description: Released in 1982 as Neil Young’s first album for Geffen, Trans shocked fans with its heavy use of vocoders and synthesizers. Tracked in sessions split between Hawaii and Modern Recorders in Redwood City, CA, the record reflected Young’s fascination with electronic music and was partly inspired by his attempts to communicate with his son, who had cerebral palsy and struggled with speech. The album’s divided reception eventually led to Young’s infamous lawsuit with Geffen over “uncommercial” records, making this LP one of the most pivotal and controversial in his catalog.

    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).
