ALEX CHILTON

Alex Chilton can’t understand why he’s a legend. To the critics, cultists and musicians who worship his landmark early’70s work with Big Star, Chilton’s a musical godhead, his influence looming large in the catalogues of such bands as R.E.M., the Bangles, the dB’s, Game Theory and the Replacements.
