Big Star not great because...they had too much competition?I've never heard even one Offspring song that I cared about ever hearing again.
If that's really the way you feel about White Stripes, I'd wonder if you've actually heard the records. The difference between the first one & Elephant...sorry. That's not the same record.
Big Star not great because...other bands had similar influence?
At least give us something that can be taken seriously. If you think Moon Martin or Berlin (?) are on a level with Big Star, tell us why. If the best you can do to try to convince us that they weren't is to come up with something that couldn't possibly be less relevant to the music (and keep in mind what was happening to Stax Records at the time they were recording those records), then I'd say Sandra isn't the only one having her brain out.
