The record
Title: Yusef Lateef - The Blue Yusef Lateef
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1968, Jazz, Post-Bop, Detroit, Michigan
Matrix #: SD 1508
Condition: EX
Cultural Facts:
-
Political Science: Lateef’s embrace of Islam was not just personal faith, it was part of a wider Black cultural and spiritual search happening across jazz in mid-century America.
-
Scene Ecology: He came out of Detroit’s serious musician pipeline, the same deep local circuit that fed players into bebop, hard bop, and later soul-jazz scenes nationwide.
-
Personal Struggle: He dealt with racism inside the music industry and broader American life, then remade himself through faith, education, and discipline rather than letting the business define him.

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).
