Description
What are your most favorite and least-loved songs on Big Star's #1 Record? Gee, no power pop nerds are going to have an opinion on this one. Memphis' finest 1972 export got the most votes in our second request election, thanks to a nomination by painter William Feuer. This episode has wide-eyed virginal opinions from Jim, who loves many of the groups famously influenced by this record but had never heard it plus a ton of fun uberfan Adam tales from Elliott Smith requests to one-off Big Star tribute nights plus the usual eloquent ramblings of Dan and Sam. A must-listen for fans of Indian songs.
