Big Star - 1978 - Third/Sister Lovers
Big Star is an American rock band formed in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1971 by Alex Chilton, Chris Bell, Jody Stephens and Andy Hummel. The group broke up in 1974, but reorganized with a new line-up nearly 20 years later. In its first era, the band's musical style drew on the work of British Invasion groups including The Beatles and The Kinks, as well as The Byrds, The Beach Boys, and other U.S. acts. To the resulting power pop, Big Star added dark, nihilistic themes, and produced a style that foreshadowed the alternative rock of the 1980s and 1990s. Before it broke up, Big Star created a "seminal body of work that never stopped inspiring succeeding generations" in the words of Rolling Stone. Third/Sister Lovers, also issued as Third, is a rock album by Big Star recorded in 1974 and released in 1978. The album was produced by Jim Dickinson. 01 - Kizza Me 02 - Thank You Friends 03 - Big Black Car 04 - Jesus Christ 05 - Femme Fatale 06 - O, Dana 07 - Holocaust 08 - Kangaroo 09 - Stroke It Noel 10 - For You 11 - You Can't Have Me 12 - Night Time 13 - Blue Moon 14 - Take Care 15 - Nature Boy 16 - Till The End Of The Day 17 - Dream Lover 18 - Downs 19 - Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On LINK
