The record
Title: Various Artists - Cruisin' 1957

Matrix #: INCM-2002
Condition: VG++ (LM) | Members: Various Artists (N/A)
Cultural Facts:
- Personal Struggle: Many early rock and R&B artists worked through segregated touring, bad contracts, and radio barriers while their music was being sold nationwide.
- Media Narrative: The Cruisin’ series recreated 1950s radio with DJ chatter, ads, and pacing, treating oldies as a time capsule instead of a plain compilation.
- Scene Ecology: 1957 shows rock & roll becoming youth infrastructure: cars, drive-ins, jukeboxes, regional DJs, and teenage buying power all feeding the same machine.

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).
