Album Notes & Community Reviews

Culled from erratic recording sessions in Memphis during 1975 under the production of Jon Tiven, 'Bach's Bottom' is steeped in shambolic charm and frayed nerves. The posthumous-feeling compilation highlights the former Big Star frontman's descent into lo-fi deconstructionism, offering a chaotic but deeply influential glimpse into his turbulent creative mindset.
