Wow, 29 people didn't know Big Star? You're missing part of your adolescence, please find #1 Record ASAP.

@mitenzouki: They never became very famous but they were very much musicians' musicians. They sparked the whole power pop movement in Rock, in the '70s, that is still a major element of music today.

@mitenzouki I only heard of them about 6 months ago. And I can't understand how they're not more famous? They should be as well known as Boston. Awesome band.

That's the reason why I clicked on this video...because of Big Star. Alex Chilton sounds like an interesting guy. I only have their first two albums but great band. Alex Chilton and Chris Bell wrote the song "In The Streets", which later became the theme to That 70's Show (except covered by Cheap Trick and a few others?)

@Bbfishman It's in the credits. Air Arizona. It's a great song, right!? :)

RIP Isaac Hayes

@mitenzouki They're sort of like Cheap Trick but with better songs basically.

@PolyphonicPress lol mind giving us the short version... the wikipedia article rubbed me the wrong way for some reason so I didn't really read it.
Did any one else not have any idea who this Big Star band was?
