The record
Year/Genre/City: 1981, Punk Rock, New York City
Matrix #: SRK 3571
Condition: EX, sounds perfect; looks good, a few light marks
Cultural Facts:
-
Studio Lore: Sessions leaned into outside producers and bigger studios, creating real tension over control and what “Ramones” was supposed to be by 1981.
-
Band Drama: The Joey/Johnny ideological split was already a constant, and it fed a cold, businesslike working environment that only got worse across this era.
-
Media Narrative: The press framed the band as “past their moment” right as punk splintered into new scenes, which pushed them into a long fight for relevance without changing their core machine.

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).
