Radio City

Description

‘Radio City’ is the second album from Big Star. Released in 1974, ‘Radio City’ includes ‘September Gurls’ and ‘Back of a Car’ which remain some of the most famous Big Star songs. The legacy of Radio City have far exceeded the original commercial letdowns of the album, which is now considered to be a milestone in the history of rock by critics and musicians alike. Both ‘Radio City’ and ‘#1 Record.’ made it onto Rolling Stone’s 500 ‘Greatest Albums of All Time’ lists, while tracks from each album (‘Thirteen’ and ‘September Gurls’) are also among the magazine’s 500 ‘Greatest Songs of All Time’. Big Star, considered to be among the founders of power pop, has been cited as an influence by many of the major alternative bands of the ’80s and ’90s, and continues to be a powerful presence in today’s musical landscape.
