The record
Title: Willie Nelson – Tougher Than Leather
Year/Genre: 1983, Outlaw Country
Matrix #: QC 38248
Condition: VG+ (looks clean, sounds clean)
Description:
Released in 1983, Tougher Than Leather came at a transitional moment in Willie Nelson’s career, when outlaw country had already broken into the mainstream and Nelson was balancing his rebel image with increasing commercial visibility. Written largely as a concept album, it reflected Nelson’s ongoing fascination with storytelling, framing songs within allegories of life, death, and morality. Issued during the Reagan era, when Nashville was pushing toward slicker production, the record stands as Nelson’s resistance to that polish, maintaining ties to the raw, narrative-driven country tradition that had made him a cultural icon of independence.

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).
