Big Star Best Of Big Star CD

2017 collection from the legendary '70s band led by Alex Chilton. 'Power pop pioneers' doesn't begin to cover it. They were only together for a brief spell in the '70s, but Big Star left behind recordings that have exerted endless influence and inspiration over the decades. Here are 16 essentials from their three LPs plus rare single versions and new liner notes. You get single mixes of "In the Street," "Don't Lie to Me," "September Gurls," "Jesus Christ" and "O My Soul" plus "Thirteen," "I'm in Love with a Girl," "Take Care," "Back of a Car" and more brilliant, beautiful Big Star!
