    Omg, his eyes, smile and hair! I just want a good 24 hrs of footage of Alex in the 70s talking, singing and goofing around. Not enough footage exists but I appreciate what we do have.

    The best video I've seen of Alex. Eggleston did a great, artistic piece. Yes, it would be nice to see more of Alex in the 70's, when he was such a hottie. But I'm glad we have a wide range of years also. Sometimes I just want to watch his stuff when he was older.

    Soon after Big Star signed with Stax Records Stax was sold to Columbia. Columbia didn't care if Stax made money, they were just buying up the competition and no one at Columbia was interested in garage band from Memphis. So Big Star's first album got almost zero distribution at the very moment it needed to be in every record store. People heard some of their songs on the radio, but couldn't find the record. No promotion, no records on shelves.. guaranteed failure.
