Alex Chilton Retrospective
He was one of the great pop craftsmen, and there's an awful lot out there on his importance in the larger scheme of things. I was a Byrds fan as a kid, so I liked that jingle-jangle guitar, and a fan of Badfinger, and later the bands that were said to have been influenced by Big Star. Here's a great round-up of Chilton tunes by Claude Pate, whom you might know by another name.
Chilton was more awesome than bacon-flavored vodka, and almost as awesome as bacon-flavored vodka with breasts.
