LOST CLASSICS | #1 Record, Radio City, Third/Sister Lovers

Posted: September 23, 2016

Even if you’ve never heard the name Big Star, you’ve certainly heard at least one of their compositions.

Their song “In The Street” is the theme song to That 70’s Show. (“Hangin’ out/Down the street/Same old thing/We did last week”).

Their first three albums #1 Record (1972), Radio City (1974), and Third/Sister Lovers (1978) are considered to be three of the greatest albums of the 70s that no one has heard.

Do yourself a favor and check out the documentary Big Star: Nothing Can Hurt Me. If you don’t already know them, they could possibly be your next obsession.
