Where the Power Is is the fifth and most recent album by the English psychedelic rock band Poisoned Electrick Head, and their first following major line-up changes and an eight-year hiatus spanning the late 1990s and early 2000s.
According to the band, the 13-track album is the first in a planned CD quadrology "bringing to light the rise & transformation of The Jedder, a multi-faceted conundrum of a man who finds the reason and purpose of his own existence hard to swallow,yet cant run from himself any longer."[1] Where the Power Is features guest appearance from the band's former keyboard player/occasional vocalist Brian Carney and by Arthur Brown, the latter of whom plays the role of narrator of the album's events and who "unfolds the tale as an objective observer but very soon gets to understand the plight of The Jedder and so begins to feel pity for and realises the need to assist The Jedder with his dilemma."[1]
