The record
Title: Urban Chipmunk
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1981, Country, Novelty Country, Los Angeles
Matrix #: RCA AFL1-4027
Condition: VG+
Cultural Facts:
- Family Ties Ross Bagdasarian Jr. revived the Chipmunks after creator Ross Bagdasarian Sr. died in 1972, keeping the project alive through the family instead of handing it off completely.
- Media Narrative This album rode the early '80s country crossover wave that followed Urban Cowboy, showing how quickly the Chipmunks were repackaged to match whatever America was buying.
- Notable Myths The Chipmunks always looked disposable on paper, but their ability to survive format changes, trends, and generations turned them into one of pop culture’s strangest long-running franchises.

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).
