Title: Well, This Is What It Would Sound Like
Review: I love Big Star, but can't stomach this album. Why someone would want to listen to this and not the originals escapes me. I guess the sound is edgier, more driving, but ultimately you listen to Big Star for the awesome songs. Yet, the voices here are so distracting (the Posies are too mellodramatic, and Chilton can't save the set) it pretty much wrecks it. Too bad, but I guess they had to prove it could be done.
Is the review positive or negative?
