The record

Title: Howlin’ Wolf – Moanin’ in the Moonlight
Year/Genre: 1959, Blues
Condition: New

Cultural Facts:

  1. Cut after Wolf relocated to Chicago; Chess positioned him as Muddy Waters’ other marquee draw, creating a label rivalry fans tracked in real time.

  2. Some key early recordings were first made in Memphis with Sam Phillips before feeding into the Chess ecosystem—part of why his early catalog feels “split.”

  3. Wolf ran his band like a job: strict rehearsals, punctuality rules, and fines—unusual discipline for blues touring units of the era

    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).
