 Notes  
     Chris Bell was one of the unsung heroes of American pop music. Despite a
     life marked by tragedy and a career crippled by commercial indifference,
     the singer/songwriter's slim body of recorded work proved massively
     influential on the generations of indie rockers who emerged in his wake.
     Born January 12, 1951 in Memphis, Tennessee, Bell grew up enveloped by the
     city's indigenous soul sounds - typified by the prodigious output of the
     Stax label - but his first love was the music of the British Invasion.
     Inspired by the Beatles, he took up the guitar in his early teens. Within a
     few years, Bell was writing and performing his own songs with friends
     Richard Rosebrough and Terry Manning, but his Anglo-pop leanings set him
     squarely outside of the Memphis musical community.
     Unreleased for over 15 years, "I Am The Cosmos" is nevertheless an enduring
     testament to the brilliance of Chris Bell; lyrically poignant and
     melodically stunning, this lone solo album is proof positive of his
     underappreciated pop mastery. While cuts like "Get Away," "I Got Kinda
     Lost," and "Fight at the Table" recall the glowing, energetic power pop of
     Bell's earlier work, the majority of the songs on "I Am the Cosmos" are
     more reflective and deeply personal; the title track is a harrowingly
     schizophrenic tale of romantic despair, while other cuts like the lurching
     "Better Save Yourself" and the lovely "Look Up" are infused with a
     spiritual power largely missing from his Big Star material. The album's
     highlight, "You and Your Sister" - which features backing vocals from none
     other than Bell's Big Star mate Alex Chilton - is simply one of the great
     unknown love songs in the pop canon, a luminous and fragile ballad almost
     otherworldly in its beauty.
     This two-disc deluxe edition of "I Am The Cosmos" contains more than a
     dozen unreleased recordings. It contains a remastered version of the
     original 1992 Ryko compilation on one disc, plus a second disc of rare and
     unreleased music recorded between 1970 and 1976. On the second disc, all
     but two of the 15 tracks are previously unreleased.
