Chris Bell (Big Star) - The Complete Chris Bell [6LP/ 20-Page Booklet/ Boxed]

Complete recordings of Big Star co-founder Chris Bell, most of the material making its vinyl debut. Includes previously unheard 1975 interview from London—exclusive to this set! After co-founding and subsequently leaving Big Star, the world only received two tracks of new music from Chris Bell during his lifetime—a 1978 single on the Car Records label run by Chris Stamey (dB’s, Sneakers) titled “I Am The Cosmos” b/w “You And Your Sister.” Before co-founding Big Star, Bell played with several bands in Memphis, and though much music was recorded, nothing was released. The early Chris Bell-related recordings were compiled by Omnivore in a CD/Digital release titled Looking Forward: The Roots Of Big Star, released in July 2017. Those recordings now make their vinyl debut in the first two LPs of The Complete Chris Bell as Looking Forward: The Roots Of Big Star and Rock City – See Seven States. Bell’s post-Big Star recordings have long been well-known as an album first compiled by Rykodisc in
