I can thank the guys in R.E.M. and The Replacements for turning me onto Big Star. <em>Third/Sister Lovers</em> has meant the most to me, but that CD 2-fer there is a great power pop platter. Also, one of the reasons I liked <em>That '70s Show</em> from the beginning was that it had "Thirteen" playing during a key scene in the pilot--and of course its theme song is a cover of "In the Street."

Still a pretty killer tune though. I would offer up like $4 to find some old footage of them. Not a lot of Big Star on youtube. Still a pretty killer tune though.
