Catcher said...: Like probably a lot of people my age, I only got into Big Star through Teenage Fanclub, and was lucky enough to see them play some years ago. 'Third/Sister Lovers' is still one of my favourite albums, as is The Cramps' 'Off The Bone', which Chilton produced. I guess we're all just getting older, and seeing the generation we grew up admiring begin to leave.; March 19, 2010 at 4:26 AM
