Remastered 2005 Studio Album On Translucent Blue Vinyl!

Big Star's 2005 studio return is pressed on translucent blue vinyl LP.

Big Star formed in 1971, and in their brief 4 years together, created 3 albums that consistently make "Best of All-Time" lists. 18 years after officially disbanding, original members Alex Chilton and Jody Stephens joined forces with The Posies' Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow for a live performance, which led to a tour (documented on Omnivore Recordings' Live In Memphis), and years of concerts. While the live shows were a joy and surprise, a bigger surprise happened in 2005. After over a decade playing together: a new studio album. As Ryko A&R's Jeff Rougvie said. "It was the easiest approval for a project I ever got." In Space featured new 12 tracks (11 originals and a cover of The Olympics' "Mine Exclusively") recorded where Big Star began, at the classic Ardent Studios.

The new line up was creating a new chapter for the band while minding and honoring its past. With original vinyl going for outrageous prices, In Space returns as an LP on translucent blue vinyl.

Packaging contains liner notes from Rougvie, original album co-producer/engineer Jeff Powell (who also cut the new vinyl), assistant Ardent engineer Adam Hill, and surviving band members Jon Auer, Ken Stringfellow, and Jody Stephens.

Remastered, In Space finally returns to Earth - prepare to blast off again!
