    The soundtrack of the 70's most of us never heard except in our everyday experience, and then found at some point, like a perfect time capsule.

    The fact that Big Star was not one of, if not, the biggest band of the '70s borders on the criminal.

      It’s very sad. Alex Chilton, even with Big Star and solo, was never ever to replicate the same success of the number one hit single The Letter with The Box Tops.

    High quality song that BOTH immediately brings back a feel of the 1970's (when I was a kid) AND demonstrates timelessness of great rock/pop music.

    I’m a second hand fan. I discovered Big Star by hearing some of my favorite artists talk about how they were influenced by them.

    When you’re an unknown band working on your first album, and the Memphis freakin’ Horns join in !!!
    If I heard the story correctly, they just happened to be at Ardent over-dubbing some STAX stuff and Chris Bell was like, “hey fellas, got a minute?”.

    "Feel"
    Wond’ring what are you doing
    You're driving me to ruin
    The love that you've been stealing
    Has given me a feeling
    I feel like I'm dying
    I'm never gonna live again
    You just ain't been trying
    It's getting very near the end

    I just heard the intro to FEEL on an microphone placement video. It was unmistakable BIG STAR! I was so happy to hear someone playing Alex or Chris's lick. I am sure they nicked it from something they heard...but who cares. They brought it to life with Ardent and their cool staff. Really nice! Love all the good times at T.G.I.F. The ones I can remember...🥴

    If you think that this album is difficult to find on vinyl, try looking for Radio City, their second album! Good luck with that! I've been trying to get ahold of a copy of the latter album for half a decade now, and it's even more difficult to find than #1 Record is, original vinyl or a reprint 😭

    I question myself how in the hell I had never listen to or heard about Big Star (although the name Alex Chilton was not strange to me)? I discovered this band in the early 2000s and their music never left my mp3 player (yep, I still keep 'em).

    I’m an 80’s kid, so I guess I can’t really be held too responsible for missing the boat on Big Star. I became aware of them because of all the Record Store Day releases I saw. Didn’t really know they were a 70’s band. I was very aware of The Boxtops and The Letter and AlexChilton, though. The thing that finally pulled me in was seeing covers on RUclips and reaction videos. Better Lateran never.

      @Nightrelic, don’t feel bad. I was a 10 year old living in Memphis when the band formed in 1970, and I didn’t hear them till the RUclips age. Actually, I discovered them the year Alex Chilton and Andy Hummel died, in 2010. I suppose I could have heard them on local radio as they got plenty of airplay, but I don’t recall.

      @@melodymakermark I was born in ‘62, so not much different. I didn’t really get drawn into music listening on a conscious level until 1976 and very quickly gravitated from Power Pop to Hard Rock to New Wave and Alt Rock. So, 80’s music was more my jam, with the exception of maybe 2 or 3 formative years. Not really enough time to absorb anything like them.

    • @melodymakermark
      @melodymakermark 7 месяцев назад

      @Nightrelic, gotcha. Yeah, I was born in ‘60, and due to an older brother and such, I was into the ‘60’s and ‘70’s stuff. By the time the ‘80’s hit, I was into a career and other things beside music, so was not really into the hard rocking hair bands of the ‘80’s, but I appreciate some of them, like Def Leopard and the Crue, but for the most part, I’d checked out in the ‘80’s. When Nirvana hit in the ‘90’s, I kinda got sucked back in. Something about the grunge thing appealed to me. I’ll tell you though, in the last 25 years, I’ve heard very little I’ve liked, with a few exceptions. Having said that, I’m sure there’s great stuff out there, I just haven’t been searching.
