notes:

The Stooges: Iggy Pop (vocals); Ron Asheton (guitar); Steven Mackay (tenor sax); Dave Alexander (bass); Scott Asheton (drums).
FUN HOUSE sounds like an extended, guttural war cry from deep within the psyche. While the Stooges' excellent debut, produced by John Cale, had a clean, punchy sound that introduced the band's ragged, stripped-down rock, it did not capture the chaotic fury of the band's live spirit. The Stooges hired Don Gallucci (formerly of the Kingsmen) to produce FUN HOUSE, and he gave the album a murky, swampy ambience that lacks clarity and precision, yet compensates for that lack tenfold with immediacy and a staggering sonic punch in the gut. And where THE STOOGES can sound like bratty teenaged music, this album sounds grown up, menacing, mercurial, dark, and relentlessly primal.
The muddied production may add to the primitivism, but it is the band that truly conjures the magic. The Stooges plays like unleashed banshees here: Ron Ashton's razory guitar riffs and swirling squall create clouds of noise while the brutal rhythms of bassist Dave Alexander and drummer Scott Ashton crash all over the place. Iggy Pop screams and howls like a man possessed, giving voice to a spirit that would find its final expression in the punk movement seven years later. From the panther-like strut of "Down on the Street" to the adrenaline-driven "TV Eye" through the caustic dirge of "Dirt" to the avant squall of "L.A. Blues" (complete with wailing air-raid saxophone from Steve MacKay), this set is one of the founding documents of alternative rock. And, like Pandora's box, once FUN HOUSE is opened there is no turning back.

*I have had to raise the shipping and handling charge a bit from what it was in my past listings due the cost increase of brand new Lp mailers and brand new cardboard for padding, ect. Even so, it is still a loss leader or, at best, a break even for me. Keep in mind, you can use the mailer again when you sell an Lp on eBay, just turn it inside out. It's good for the environment.

Grading Key

SS/Still Sealed: In original shrink wrap or package.

M/Mint: A mint item must be absolutely perfect. Nothing less can be honestly decribed as mint.

NM/Near mint: A tiny imperection or two to either jacket and/or record that would prevent the item from being graded mint.

VG+/Very Good Plus: Records with only superficial signs of use that dont affect play. Only well cared for records will grade out to VG+. Will satisfy all but the most demanding collector.

VG/Very good: Records in very good condition should have a minimum of visual or audio imperfections, which not detract too much from your enjoyment of owning them. This grade is 1/2 way between good & near mint.

G/Good: The grade good means that the item may be good enough to fill a gap in your collection until a better copy comes along ( if ever for rare items) Good condition merchandise will show definite signs of wear & tear. However, they should play thru without skipping & be free of warps.
