Here's an absolutely gorgeous tune from Big Star's debut, #1 Record. It's the second-last track on the album and I always thought there was something nicely, if subtly, symbolic about putting a song about a sunrise so near to the end of an album. It would have made a nicer closer than the actual last song, the too-overtly CSNYish "ST 100/6", I think.
The guitars on this sum up perfectly all the reasons I love guitars. And all the reasons I love Big Star.
