The problem with Big Star is, they are very highly rated. I would say maybe underappreciated, but they are in almost every influence discussion. Not known by enough people is probably more appropriate.


Thats why my mention of them referenced it from a historical context... I agree that to "Music" people, today they are held in the highest regard, but not back when they were active...

I also think that your everyday rock n roll fan doesnt know them... It seems like over the past 20 years or so I am continually turning people on to them, even though, when I hear what their musical tastes are, I am surprised they have never heard of them before...


eta: good call on The Connells... I still listen to Fun and Games quite a bit...

Yes, that's all true.

If you ignore Weird Food and Devastation, which is truely terrible, The Connells have a fantastic body of work. Five very, very good albums. Not sure on the newest one.
