Probably the biggest 'hit' was 'the letter' with the Boxtops, which you may not think you know but if it came on you'd go "Oh yeah, I love that song...

With Big Star Chilton was hugely influential on lots of guitar bands who came later. Great songwriter, creative and cool. Will be sadly missed.

Expect a tribute from Teenage Fanclub any minute..
