Mr. Big rode mainstream rock's last gasp onto the top of the charts in early 1992 with their hit single "To Be with You," but further success largely eluded them (at least in the United States). How was their career trajectory altered by AOR eating itself? Is there a world in which they had a few more platinum records in them? Maura Johnston and Michael Parr join us for a discussion about all this and more.
