Alex Chilton - Live at Anvers - RSD 2023 - Blue Vinyl

Never before released on vinyl. No plans to re-press. CD long out of print. No digital release until far in the future. A true RSD exclusive!

Live in Anvers is the last album Alex Chilton released under his own name during his lifetime. He had recently taught himself how to transcribe music and for the album he wrote out charts for a number of songs - some he wrote like In the Street from his Big Star days and Bangkok from his run in the late '70s New York punk scene. An obsessive crate digger, especially of southern soul music, Alex unearthed and transcribed the music for Claim to Fame, an obscure Frederick Knight track, as well as things made popular by Sam and Dave and Ernie K Doe.
