This might be the most unexpected turn from these guys. Terry Riley insanity! Flows nicely, kinda wonder if it’s done in one take or patched together. One take would be impressive for a group not known for this type of thing.
Record is credited to "Osees" in keeping with variants in band name coinciding with stylistic shifts (e.g. OCS - > Thee Oh Sees -> Oh Sees (and back and forth again)).

Re: First song you heard today
I’ve had a really fucking good morning so far, and I attribute this entirely to the fact that the first song I heard today was Days by Television..

Re: First song you heard today
Is Third/Sister Lovers the consensus best Big Star album? I love about half of each of the other two (possibly more like 2/3rds for Radio City, it's been a long time) but find them pretty inconsistent, nothing but incredible jam after incredible jam here and this song in particular is so transcendentally beautiful to me, could listen to it on repeat forever.

I sure hope it is. 10/10 BNM all-killer no-filler.

Re: First song you heard today
I think the thing with 3rd is that there are a few different versions of it, because it was kind of pieced together a couple of different times. First during the period when no one cared about them (after they broke up, before "Alex Chilton"). And then a few times after. So it's hard to say what is actually the 'real' album.
I like them all, though. Even the reunion one "In Space" was pretty decent.
Different opinions exist regarding the categorization of Third as a Big Star album. According to Chilton, "Jody and I were hanging together as a unit still but we didn't see it as a Big Star record. We never saw it as a Big Star record. That was a marketing decision when the record was sold in whatever year that was sold. And they didn't ask me anything about it and they never have asked me anything about it." Stephens said, "I've seen it in different ways. To a great extent it is an Alex solo record ... It's Alex's focus, it's his emotional state of being but I brought in the string section for the one song I wrote and Alex hit it off with Carl Marsh ... and started using Carl and the string section for other things. What would that album have been like if it didn't have the strings?" According to Eaton, the mastering card identifies Chilton as the recording artist.
...
Jovanovic, meanwhile, notes, "Whether the band was still called Big Star is debatable. The session sheets have the band name 'Sister Lovers' (Chilton and Stephens were dating Lesa and Holliday Aldridge at the time) clearly written on them. This may well have been a joke, although Chilton and Stephens did use the Sister Lovers name for a radio broadcast in early 1975.In 1978 the tapes were acquired by the PVC label and given their first official release. Third was first released by Aura Records in London in 1978. The PVC release in the US came later that year. Numerous reissues by other labels on vinyl and CD would follow, often varying the title, running order, and cover art, as no 'definitive' version had ever been agreed upon by the band. In addition to the original songs, covers of The Kinks' "'Till the End of the Day", eden ahbez's "Nature Boy" and Jerry Lee Lewis' "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On" were variously included or omitted. The 1992 CD release on Rykodisc, assembled with Jim Dickinson's involvement, was regarded as the first attempt at a presentation of the original album concept devised by Dickinson and the band in 1974. In October 2016, Omnivore Recordings released Complete Third, a box set that includes every demo, rough mix, outtake, alternate take, and final master from the Third sessions ever known to exist.
I like them all, though. Even the reunion one "In Space" was pretty decent.
