Last week Paul chose a song by Big Star for his throwback. The lead singer of Big Star was Alex Chilton. The Replacements wrote a song called Alex Chilton so I decided to play a song by The Replacements. That’s how this happened

This song was my intro to Alex Chilton and Big Star! 😀

This one’s kind of a great song off a weaker album. Tom Petty stoke a line from it too.

I saw them twice back in the day= and had ticket to see the reunion tour a few years back- and Paul called it quits right before they came to down. The first time I saw them it would rank as one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to– the second time- was their last tour before they quit back in the early 90’s and it was rather pedestrian. Funny how two people can be at the same place and have different experiences- a friend of mine who went to that second concert [but not the first ] remarked recently to me how great the concert was…hmmm.
