Speaking of Big Star,

this is a band that sounds like a cross between Big Star and Cheap Trick--but what's amazing is that the guitar player's using the same real reverby Fender guitar parts Alex Chilton plays on Radio City. Hmm...wonder how many other really fine Memphis-Brit hybrids were around then. (I actually kind of dig the South's take on guitar pop--REM, Mitch Easter, Chris Stamey & crew, Superchunk, Continental Drifters...)
