Big Star - Live On WLIR - Remastered and restored performance originally recorded and broadcast in 1974. • On LP officially for the first time. • New liner notes from authors Robert Gordon and Rich Tupica. • Liners include an interview with bassist, John Lightman. Big Star recorded their second album, Radio City, as a trio, after the departure of founding member Chris Bell. When it came time to tour, original bassist Andy Hummel decided to return to school to pursue his engineering education. With this departure, Alex Chilton and Jody Stephens recruited fellow Memphis native John Lightman to take over on bass duties, and the band readied their live set. That set is on display as Big Star recorded a radio session at Ultrasonic Studios in New York for broadcast on the city's preeminent WLIR. Nearly two decades later, those recordings were issued as Live in 1992. Omnivore Recordings is proud to reintroduce those recordings, restored and remastered from the original tapes, as Live On WLIR, on CD-and, it's first official release on LP. The 15 track set features material from the band's two releases, as well as a cover of "Motel Blues" by Loudon Wainwright III (which originally appeared on his classic 1971 sophomore release, Album II). With new, updated liner notes from Memphis writer/filmmaker, Robert Gordon (who won a Grammy® for his essay in 2010's Big Star boxed set Keep An Eye On The Sky) and an interview with John Lightman by Chris Bell biographer Rich Tupica (There Was A Light: The Cosmic History Of Big Star Founder Chris Bell), Live On WLIR enters the Big Star canon in the form it deserves. Because, you know, you get what you deserve.

Another amazing book from a talented author
Format: Kindle
This is one of my favorite authors so I knew I would enjoy this book and once again, the characters seemed so real like people I knew personally. I very much enjoyed Daphne and Eddie’s relationship and I loved learning about Eddie and Daphne’s mother’s life together and why things played out the way they did. This book truly shows how people can impact us forever regardless of how long they were in our life. There was so much beauty in this book despite the loss and sadness at times. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Revisiting Childhood Story
Format: Hardcover
When you look back on your childhood, are there unresolved feelings? What happens when you look back on your life to reflect?
Daphne Fuller is our main character in this new novel by Ann Patchett. Jonathan, her husband, is very observant and can’t help but notice an older man following them on a visit to the Met. Imagine Daphne’s surprise when she discovers that the older man is her former stepfather, who was married to her mother for only a short time when Daphne was nine. Eddie Triplett was a favorite, though, and she adored him. It was also during this time that she experienced a very pivotal point in her young life.
Now in her early 50s, Daphne and Eddie get reacquainted and remember how much they enjoyed each other’s company. It’s natural to wonder what her life would have been like had Eddie stayed involved. Daphne finally learns the truth about why Eddie and her mother divorced.
Ann Patchett is one of those writers who make storytelling seem effortless, and I enjoy her books and the characters she creates. As Daphne reflects on her life, her husband heads back to his childhood home to clean it out after the death of his mother. Both are grappling with childhood memories and family dynamics.
There is a pivotal story about a horse called Whistler, but this is not a ranching story. This book is filled with characters and families who love, make mistakes, reconcile, grapple with loss, and live richer lives.
Thank you to Harper for my gifted copy. All opinions are my own.

Classic Ann Patchett: A moving family drama
Format: Hardcover
Ann Patchett’s new book WHISTLER is literary fiction in its purest form. Rather than a plot-driven story that goes from A to B, she writes about everyday moments in a way that makes the reader relate. Her stories are an in-depth study of humanness, of our shared experiences and our limitations.
Much of this story is told in flashbacks, revealing a 1980 car accident involving MC Daphne and her stepfather Eddie; and here we learn the significance of a horse named Whistler. Daphne is an English lit teacher at a girls’ school and Eddie is a literary editor, so I loved their discussions. Surrounding these two are a host of unique and interesting characters: Daphne’s husband Jonathan, her birth parents, and younger sister Leda, a clinical psychologist. Although facts are related, the meat of the narrative is what the characters think, feel, fear, and regret. It’s a story about family relationships and the long-lasting effects of events and words for years afterward. It’s about the power of our memories.
There’s something about Ann Patchett’s witty and perfectly crafted prose that grips the reader. She has an extraordinary ability to tell a simple story, highlighting human experiences in such a way as to make it an introspective venture.

Not good if you need Whole Foods gift cards
If you want to buy Whole Foods gift cards (which is why I got it) it flags it for fraud and doesnt let you. I was told you can spend at Whole Foods but not buy WF gift cards, even though it is a Prime Credit Card. Also if you buy WF gift cards online, you dont get the rewards since its from a gift card company and not Whole Foods.
