BIG STAR THE BEST BAND OF THE 70's
June 21, 2017
Big Star the best unknown band of the '70's...Alex Chilton coming off his first solo LP that amazingly was not picked up by a label and the talented Chris Bell got together and recorded music history at the Ardent Studios in Memphis with #1 record and then Alex put out Radio City and the dark 3rd....All the would be hits are here from the perfect single September Gurls to the lovely Thirteen to the funny Jesus Christ to the stark Nighttime.. its a 45rpm LP and it's the ideal starter kit for Big Star newbies...

Big Star is great, but this album isnt the best
September 20, 2019
First off, why do a double LP with only 1 LP worth of songs, and why on earth is it 45rpm?
It does have some of their best songs on it, but the formatting is really poorly thought out.
And why add a novelty Christmas song at the end of side 1? I really dont want to hear that in July. Isnt 3 months of Christmas enough each year? This could have been a great 33rpm single LP, but they mucked it up.
