Matrix #: us-7725

Cultural Facts:
- Personal Struggle: Hooker was born into Mississippi sharecropper poverty, left home as a teenager, and rebuilt his life through factory work and night gigs in Detroit.
- Scene Ecology: The material comes from Hooker’s early-50s recording world, when small labels kept blues moving through jukeboxes, storefront shops, and regional radio.
- Media Narrative: By the LP era, labels kept repackaging Hooker’s older sides for new folk and rock listeners, turning a working bluesman into a source figure.

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).
