    yeah it’s def proto

    power pop as we know and sell it today - how you categorize it and lets say put a playlist of it, would be off of how power pop was executed in the mid to late 70s not before, therefor why im hehhhh on big star, they’re more of laying the ground for it

    elvis costello is right in the heart of power pops explosion

    !https://youtu.be/-YwI3CiU0xw

    when you listen to this you don’t hear how the night before shapes this? more so than love me do?

    elvis was the poet laureate of the first wave punk movement.... never heard power pop applied to him before
