POWER RECORDS


POWER HISTORY
In 1940, the Synthetic Plastic Company embarked on a new business venture, recording and selling music geared toward a much younger audience, children in fact. Based out of Newark, New Jersey, SPC had created Peter Pan Records which became known for it's series of "book-and-record sets", illustrated story books that were accompanied by music and narration when read along with the vinyl record.

Power Records, an imprint of Peter Pan Records from the 70's, continued in the same vein with book-and-records releases, however, Power Records featured characters licensed from DC Comics, Marvel Comics, and other popular television shows from the time ("Kojak", "The Six Million Dollar Man", "Star Trek").

The book-and-record sets often featured comic books stories and art (some original and some retold tales) along with an extended-play 7" record of the story. LPs were also produced featuring the recorded stories, often re-released, without illustrations.

COLLECTED POWER
Below is a comprehensive list of Power Records releases in their various incarnations. The records marked with a "✓" are ones that are already part of the "Slaughter Film Library". The rest are being sought after at this very moment.

These recordings have never been re-issued on CD or in any digital format, but you can guarantee that as our Power Records collection grows we will be sharing it right here for all of you vinyl/comic fans.
