Cultural Facts:
- Personal Struggle: Marsalis was still in his early 20s while carrying the heavy public burden of defending acoustic jazz against fusion and pop crossover.
- Political Science: The title frames jazz as coded Black history, not museum nostalgia, tying underground language to cultural survival.
- Scene Ecology: The quintet helped define the 1980s jazz revival, bringing young players back to small-group discipline, swing language, and modern post-bop intensity.

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).
