Soon after Big Star signed with Stax Records Stax was sold to Columbia. Columbia didn't care if Stax made money, they were just buying up the competition and no one at Columbia was interested in garage band from Memphis. So Big Star's first album got almost zero distribution at the very moment it needed to be in every record store. People heard some of their songs on the radio, but couldn't find the record. No promotion, no records on shelves.. guaranteed failure.

Hiya chap. It isn't too late. We're not his mates. We have his work. 'Big Star' rocked, so did his solo work. He produced The Cramps and made himself a productive, but flawed I grant you, great. Love him! x
