Emerging two years later, Power Pop was an attempt to resurrect the Fab Four’s early days. What did it sound like Impossibly catchy tunes with attitude, taking the contagious harmonies, jangly guitars and la la las of the British Invasion groups, and making them punchier, sometimes heavier. Pop music but powerful. Key bands like Raspberries, Big Star, The Flamin Groovies and Cheap Trick lamenting, yearning and crying about young love in a way that you couldn’t help but sing along to. The genre would hit its commercial peak at the end of the 70s. But what were the essential steps along the way, the key tracks and influencers And how did it get to the point where “My Sharona” could become the biggest-selling US single of 1979. This is how Power Pop became Power Pop. #powerpop #bigstar #musicdocumentary This video is sponsor
