Big Star belongs in the Rock and Roll HOF.

[@ailurophile17]

And so do the Groovies and the Dolls and the Searchers and the Beau Brummels and dozens of others, but of course what I refer to as the SO-CALLED "r&r hof" ends up selecting hacks like Foreigner and evidently EVERY band from the 70's that had a Top 40 hit on American radio (gave up listening to it in 1970 and never regretted that decision for a moment). I've been telling friends for years that sooner or later they'll have Cactus, England Dan & John Ford Coley, the Little River Band, Mountain, Molly Hatchet, and Loverboy "inducted" as well! Commercial considerations ALWAYS outweigh artistic accomplishments!

[@jakoblaban429]

This is all very interesting. Love it. I had Alex spend a weekend at my apt. in Germany in the early 2000s when tried to get away from his bandmates from the BoxTops as they were doing some as he put it cringy reunion tour. I had no idea really who he was, only vaguely from what my ex-wife told me who was friends with him when she had lived in New Orleans. So I got to meet him completely out of context and thoroughly enjoyed this man's company. And... I was aware of his punk/indie endeavours in the late 70s/early 80s but only now I really start watching docus about big star for what he is apparently best known. Well, long story short. I really like the clip. Thank you! :) And if I may leave you with a little guitar quote of what Alex said to me as he was chain smoking joints in my kitchen: "Damn, I wish I had figured out how much more you can do playing keys I would've ditched the guitar a long time ago" said with a twinkle but I knew he felt he should've explored more forms of musical expression. Little life lesson here maybe...I hope he got to explore the piano enough before he passed. RIP Alex

[@melodymakermark]

@jakoblaban429, I heard he bought a nice piano with royalty money from That ‘70’s Show, but it was lost in 2005 when Hurricane Katrina flooded his New Orleans Treme home.

[@jakoblaban429]

​@@melodymakermark Oh no, I remember hearing that. That's sad. Talking about royalty money reminds me of another wisdom bit he said: "Having a hit doesn't really do anything for you except exposure, but once someone covers it is when you start making a living from it". (Thank you Bangles ;) ) I'm sure that was especially true in light of the way the industry he had to deal with was structured back then plus depending on the type of deal you signed with it. But again a simple observation that me as a you 20some year old had not considered till then.

[@ailurophile17]

While all my compatriots in the army back in '73 were listening to the usual assortment of bombastic "classic rock" (biggest misnomer ever!) icons, I was trying to drown them out with the Flamin' Groovies "Teenage Head," Brinsley Schwarz's "Nervous on the Road" and of course Big Star's "#1 Record" That was EXACTLY the sort of rock and roll I wanted to hear and why the popular music of the 70's was such anathema to me. When I was hitchhiking around the country after ETS'ng in '74, I carried a copy of "Radio City" with me in my backpack and played it for the numerous people who picked me up and invited me to stay at their place for an evening before hitting the road again. I still can't believe how that album didn't change the world! For years I did my best to proselytize for Alex and Chris and Jody back when they were virtually unheard of and hopefully convinced a few hundred to find their two albums (not much a fan of the 3rd) in used record stores. FINALLY, they got to be regarded as a "lost" seminal band and it was great to see the documentary made a few years ago. By my count, they should have had at LEAST six #1 singles and in a far better world than this, they would have. Glad to see this on KZbin and hope that some of the uninitiated might take a gander (or a goose if they have one).

If you could pick out those six singles, what would they be? I’ll pick out mine, now…

[@ailurophile17]

@@kookoothebirdgirl1 From first listen to RADIO CITY, it was pretty obvious to me that "September Gurls" should have been a #1, and my others would be: "In The Street," "Don't Lie To Me," "When My Baby's Beside Me," "Feel," "She's A Mover," and "You Get What You Deserve." I LOVE all the rest too, but those would have been chart-toppers and a welcome relief from the dross that ruled the era!

[@benjaminpensiero8519]

Definitely! The guitar parts of Bell and Chilton from the first LP just scream to be turned up to “11.”

[@jamesmccown2024]

Excellent job! 5 Stars! Thank you for putting this together. It was well researched and fun! If I may, I would just like to add, as a kind of sidebar, the unlikely role that Ivo Watts- Russell of the UK label 4ad , played in Big Star's resurgence. His project, This Mortal Coil recorded two Big Star songs (Holocaust and Kanga-Roo) on their first LP as well as two Chris Bell songs (You and Your Sister and I Am the Cosmos) on their third LP. It was the 4ad connection, I believe, that led to the late Jeff Buckley's fixation on Big Star ( he had started playing a walloping version of Kanga- Roo on his live shows) and his subsequent move to Memphis shortly before his death. Just my conjecture, anyway. Keep up the good work and Prayers for you and your son. ❤

[@denniswood1437]

Great presentation. The attention to detail about the career of Big Star, Alex Chilton, Chris Bell was on a higher level than other articles and journalism I've read about the band. All three of Big Star's albums are recognized as classic gems, but Stax Records distribution was horrendous. The records weren't in the shops. I remember Creem Magazine promoted both # 1 Record and Radio City intensely back in the 1970s, but I could never find their albums locally until the early 1990s.

It’s Chilton. Alex Chilton You can at least spell the man’s name correctly.

I was blown away when I recently heard this record for the first time. I was immediately impressed by the sonic fidelity and then as each song progressed by the quality of the musicianship.

[@ekw555]

there are seven Alex Chilton tracks on the Ork Records compilation New York, New York. The album is considered punk. I'm guessing these tracks are much different than the (earlier) Big Star work.

Great tagline for a movie

[@sixbladeknife44]

Great stuff and well done, those first two Big Star albums are as good as anything else of that era and should’ve sold much better. But time has been kind to them, undeniable legacy and influence on so many other bands that followed. Chilton was a true musical chameleon.

[@417DrumBob]

Great video. I love Big Star, although I was a bit late to the party. You summed it all up nicely when you said, "It may have taken 30 years, but Big Star go their due." Very well said.

[@4STEVEJOY34]

Keep them coming. Documenting this history is valuable.

[@jeffclement2468]

Good stuff! And those are perfect analogies, citing Badfinger and The Rasberries. Rundgren hadn't occurred to me tho. When I first picked up that combo CD of their first two albums, (going by recommendations from the musicians you mentioned), I rememger thinking, "Who else sounded like this at that time?!" The closest I came up with was Badfinger. Then later, The Rasberries. I recognised two songs right off the bat. "In The Street", which was the theme song from "That 70's Show", and the mini masterpiece, "Thirteen," that I already had by the band Garbage. Looking forward to more of these. Maybe New Colony Six? 👍😻🤘🌹

Good overview of likely the most overlooked band of the '70's. Can't believe that the relatively new music video of September Gurls has only 80,000 views? Oh well, it's a Big Star "thing." Take care, stay well, & ✌!

[@markeggins890]

Nice job mate, even as a big fan I learned a few more things about them, Radio City was their peak, a stunning mix of 60's pop, 70's power and soul and funk influences, a totally unique record.

[@HB-zi3og]

Fantastic potted history of the band. Chilton played guitar in Tav Falco's Panther Burns for much of the 80's and his 1st solo album ('Like Flies on Sherbert') is one of the most unhinged records released in the pure rock n roll genre. It's not for the faint hearted! I saw the Sydney 'Big Star Third' tribute show and it was amazing.

[@chrisdrake447]

A proper forehead slapping moment, for a band known about but, shamefully, barely listened to. A top notch bio indeed of a band whose influence really should demolish their ‘lost’ status ... but of course, that is the whole damn point of this series. Thanks. Again.

[@umbluegray1]

As a Memphian I think it's so cool that so much music has come from -- and through -- Memphis. Thanks for this video!

[@bluecalix]

Cool video - i've LOVED Big Star since someone introduced me to 3rd in the early 90s (I own one of those 250 copies of the 3rd promo vinyl and an original pressing of #1 Record) but your video fleshed out some things for me i didn't know previously. Nice job! I'll check out more of your channel. I think you did miss one important item tho, in the early 90's during their second resurgence (after the 80's Bangles/Replacements/REM/This Mortal Coil) Ryko did officially release 3rd as well as a disk of Chris Bell's solo work. A lot of 90s kids like myself really dug into them via those records.

Excellent choice of bands to cover. I saw the documentary and I read one of the bios but there was still stuff in your presentation that I didn’t know (or maybe I’d just forgotten it?). I was one of those people who’d heard of Big Star, probably from a mention in the pages of Trouser Press. I was fortunate enough to then find a copy of the first album, at a yard sale in 1980. And, oh what an album!

[@lordofthemound3890]

I never really heard Big Star’s jangle as coming from early Brit-pop, I always heard more American folk-rock in their sound, like The (early) Byrds and Buffalo Springfield (especially “When My Baby’s Beside Me”). I like all the “Never heard of them, I’ll check them out” comments. I hope new listeners’ appreciation won’t be diminished by the fact that Big Star were so influential, one might end up wondering, “What’s the big deal? I’ve heard this all before.” Remember folks, Big Star did it first. And if they NOW sound familiar, it’s because of that wide net of influence they had. My hope is that new listeners can still hear how unique the band was at the time. The first Velvet Underground only sold a few thousand copies upon its release, but the saying goes that everybody who bought it started a band. Big Star is like that too.

[@KurtfromLaQuinta]

The Beatles , The Byrds. Lots of jangle going on... and continuing to this day. Check out "It's A Jangle Out There" Main- FM Australia.

@davidkornblatt851, Big Star’s music has a bit more complexity than does Badfinger’s. Big Star has more good songs than Badfinger. Having said that, Badfinger’s best 3 or 4 tunes > Big Star’s best 3 or 4. One fan’s opinion.

In the early seventies I remember reading a very positive review of their No. 1 Record release in America's Cicus Magazine. I was really open to new music at that time being only a teenager at the time and really hoped to find their album here in Australia. Unfortunately it wasn't available here and it was only in the nineties that I found it and subsequent Big Star releases and found out how great they were. They certainly deserved greater success than they achieved. Up there with all the best bands ever. Love their music.

Fine presentation. Man, BS&T was trying to lose everything good when they wouldn't keep the great Al Kooper but took the easy road to the middle with David Bloated Thomas. Big Star is certainly overlooked though Alex might be right to later say they might be overrated when some say it's the best rock and roll ever. Their best songs like Thirteen and September Gurls are timeless and they have so many good songs. Alex and Big Star were never afraid to try covers by the Velvet Underground, The Troggs' "With a Girl Like You" or Eddie Floyd's "I Never Found a Girl", even with Teenage Fanclub.

[@lawrencefeldman7744]

Have you considered covering Moby Grape? They had a similar trajectory. They started out promising then due to the usual mismanagement and destruction of the humans involved have fought for their legacy ever since. Their output 67-71 is as essential as Big Star. Three minute propulsive hooky songs written,sung,and performed by all group members. And an enigmatic front man who would be ejected from his band and go on to record an elusive and influential solo LP.(Skip Spence). The surviving members perform to this day.

[@kookoothebirdgirl1]

I really enjoyed this little retrospective on Big Star, and I actually even learned a few things! The only little complaint I have is the loop of the instrumental in the background.
