Numbers - 13

 
This, and everything else on Big Star's #1 Record only really grabbed the attention of music journalists when it came out in 1972. But it stands toe to toe with anything released at that time. While sounding like none of it. Which may go some way to explaining why it didn't sell. Another of those records I can remember clearly hearing for the first time. At my sister's flat in Brighton. In 1991 I'd guess. It wasn't difficult to understand why such a myth had grown around them.
