"Chris Bell's passion for music still rings true"

"Thirty years ago today, the body of Chris Bell was laid to rest. But his music, his spirit, have yet to be buried."

"It's been a banner year for the work of the late singer-songwriter and founder of Memphis' legendary cult band Big Star. This fall, "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist" -- a Columbia Pictures film that grossed some $30 million at the box office -- blasted Bell's "Speed of Sound" over the opening credits. Millions of TV watchers heard Bell's songs on the syndicated program "That '70s Show," and critics raved over a CD compilation called Thank You Friends: The Ardent Records Story, which featured several of Bell's previously unheard recordings."
