What's it like Mark? Tuned in to a BBC 4 special on the Floyd a few weeks aback and I was shocked at the stuff I had never seen before including AHM live sessions. Where did all this come from?? And now this.....and I'm not even touching on the gargantuan box set!

Big Star #1 Record. On cd, Thirteen one of my favourite songs ever.
+ 1 on the Big Star album. You've got to get it on vinyl :) Plus its companion piece, the all important 2nd album and finally # 3 ;)))))

Here's an article I've just found. Haven't read it yet but I'd say it's a good one. Takes ages to load.

http://www.technologytell.com/hometech/ ... -on-vinyl/

https://www.discogs.com/Big-Star-Nothin ... se/4497923 - a nice find :)

My own vinyl copy is a cut price (3.99!) twofer on Stax that I picked up sometime last century in one of the best Golden Disc shops ever run by guys who eventually made a name for themselves in music journalism and setting up a record label. Sadly the shop is long since gone......

The owner of our local record emporium is a massive fan of DJS. He actually showed me a vinyl box set of the album he got recently. Still sealed. Still awaiting rediscovery......
