The record company wasn't beside them. Their label, Ardent, a division of parent company, Stax, was indifferent towards the band, didn't push distribution, didn't support them the way they should have. All the incredible work Big Star was doing, what a shame. It would pull apart any group.
How this wasn't a hit i will never know, i have heard most of the other music that was coming out at this time and it in no way compares to this lost classic.

Fine song. Reminds me melody-wise a hypothetical Todd Rundgren song.

My favorite Big Star song. Should've been, in 1972, a "#1 record".
