Relatively Clean Rivers - s/t

A rambling pastoral California trip that may evoke CSNY's Deja Vu on 'shrooms. A completely timeless sound out of 1975 that's just right.

Chris Bell I Am the Cosmos

Everyone knows the name Alex Chilton, but I think the unsung hero of Big Star is Chris Bell. This CD (out on vinyl next month from 4 Men With Beards) is a collection of demos which gives any of the Big Star output a run for its money. It's completely disconnected from any time or place...an introspective journey thru the mind of someone you would be too scared to get close to.
