Entertainment Reviews:
Rolling Stone - 11/25/93, p.117
4 Stars - "...there's none of the reverence of tentativeness [on LIVE AT MISSOURI] that sometimes occurs when acolytes jam with their heroes: [Big Star] click in as a band...Big Star avoid the nostalgic preciousness that marred 'reunions' of other legends..."Spin - 11/93, pp.131-132
"...nothing deters [Big Star's] rabid, risky power....Guitar solos commute from lysergic non-nostalgia to pass-the-Prozac anxiety--lovely, unchartable trajectories..."Entertainment Weekly - 10/8/93, p.54
"...The vibes are loose, the playing spirited, and the selections from Big Star's songbook show why Chilton is patron saint to alternative geeks..."Q - 11/93, p.114
4 Stars - Excellent - "...[LIVE AT MISSOURI] is a sparkling occasion..."Alternative Press - 11/93, p.64
"...Big Star reformed for one perfect concert last spring and the resulting album is a gem of white-hot pop glee..."Melody Maker - 8/28/93, p.34
"...captures perfectly the disjointed classicism evident on Big Star's sadly few records...."Stereo Review (1/94, p.119) - "...What puts COLUMBIA across is the raw, romping freedom with which they attack their legacy...Big Star make pure pop with claws that scratch beneath the surface...."
NME (Magazine) - 8/28/93, p.36
7 - Very Good - "...thank your lucky Big Star, because this really is a fine old thing..."
