Big Star, regarded as one of the power - pop founders, has influenced many major alternative bands from the '80s and '90s and still has a strong presence in today's music scene. Artists like R.E.M., Teenage Fanclub, The Replacements, and Wilco all praise the group's artistic impact. Mike Mills remembers Big Star as a band that got it right, making records with the true rock - and - roll sound, from energetic rockers to beautiful ballads. Radio City, released in 1974, is Big Star's second album. It features hits like 'September Gurls' and 'Back of a Car'. Despite initial commercial setbacks, both Radio City and #1 Record are now seen as rock milestones. This is a 50th anniversary limited edition on red marble colored vinyl, released by Craft Recordings in 2024.
