Dead Rock Stars

My original birthday plans this year included going to see Big Star in Memphis, but sadly, Alex Chilton passed away on March 16th.  So sad I'll never get to see him perform. We've (I've) lost some great musicians just this year, Mark Linkous of Sparklehorse and Jay Reatard included.

I'm probably the last person to be posting about him, but that Box Tops song just came into my head today and I had to post the video.
