“Re-released and available in stores due to popular demand… Big Star ‘Keep An Eye on the Sky.’ The landmark 4CD set, which Pitchfork cited as “best new reissue” with a score of 9.3/10, while proclaiming it “the one reissue that gets Big Star right” features 98 songs, many exclusive to this box set, including the band captured live at Lafayette’s Music Room, Memphis, in 1973. The expanded 2xCD version of Chris Bell ‘I Am the Cosmos’ also gets the reissue treatment, and is available in retail stores for the first time. KEEP AN EYE ON THE SKY: 4CD – smarturl.it/BigStarBox4CD I AM THE COSMOS: 2CD – smarturl.it/IAmCosmos2CD John Fry, “The Big Star box is a unique collection of music and insightful liner notes that keep telling the story to an ever growing number of fans. The Chris Bell 2 CD Cosmos reissue is in my opinion the definitive collection of Chris’ solo work. We took great pains to use original analog sources and to master the CDs much as we would have done vinyl in the 70s. Enjoy the music and the story.” Founding Big Star member Jody Stephens added “Im very glad to see the box set and Chris deluxe set reissued. Both written stories, and in this case, stories as told through song and musical development are incredibly important.”
