Cause and Effect – Big Star (Hosted by Dr. Jay)
Big Star – the most influential band that almost nobody heard. Peter Buck of R.E.M. once said that the only people who knew about Big Star were rock critics and record store clerks. But the music they made and the way they made it became the blueprint for much of what became alternative music in the 80’s and beyond. And we’ll dive into all of it.
