Big Star formed in 1971, and in their brief four years together, created three albums that consistently make "Best of All-Time" lists. Eighteen 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 twelve tracks (eleven 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 here in a colored LP pressing. 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.

In Space finally returns to earth. Prepare to blast off again!
