O My Soul - Big Star

[arjun2191]

Such a great find. Real music right here, people.

[drogheda1966]

Their albums are truly something else. 'Third/S.L.' is a tough listen, beautiful but too much pain and anger for one sitting. It's a late-night album for me, like Neil Young's 'Tonight's the Night'. Never be another Big Star.

I think just zoning out on the music, and staring at the flashing star almost made me have a seizure.

Sounds like Kenny Loggins "Footloose" at the start

This is an amazing piece of work. Alex Chilton may you rest peacefully.

~ What you said. 'Radio City' is their GD benchmark. '3rd' be damned. That's pretty fantastic, too.

Really great song, best album of the band. Simple but nice idea for the video.

I always loved the haphazard production. This LP is genius. I know the first one is ok, but I can't for one, see any real link. In my opinion the first one is a pretty derivative 60's tribute... this is all about a fucked up genius, Alex Chilton. Maybe if was Chilton who died instead of poor Chris Bell, people would realise what a one off he truly was / is.
