“September Gurls”, Big Star

This way: September Gurls

“September Gurls” is a song by the rock band Big Star. Written by Alex Chilton, it was featured on the group’s second studio album Radio City. The track was released in 1974. Big Star was an American rock band formed in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1971 by Alex Chilton, Chris Bell, Jody Stephens, and Andy Hummel. The group broke up in early 1975. 

In its first era, the band’s musical style drew on the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Byrds. Big Star produced a style that foreshadowed the alternative rock of the 1980s and 1990s. Before they broke up, Big Star created a "seminal body of work that never stopped inspiring succeeding generations", in the words of Rolling Stone, as the “quintessential American power pop band”.
