... wait for Alex Chilton when he comes round
They say, "I'm in love, what's that song?
I'm in love with that song."

R.I.P Alex Chilton
I would rank Chilton's band, Big Star (along with the late, Chris Bell, Andy Hummell & Jody Stephens) among the very best rock bands of all time. I was turned on to them in the early Nineties and caught them each time they came to town. By that time they were long past their prime, but I knew I was seeing a band, the likes of which, would not come 'round again. If you never had the opportunity to see them play live -- too bad. But there is always time to play catch up with their music.
