In honor of the fact that the three of us are going to see The Stooges live in NYC in 2 weeks, as well as the fact that their new album got a 1.0 from Pitchfork............

no you didn't...
Fuck those Pitchfork sons of bitches. Even if the new Stooges has some head-scractcher lyrics, the record wasn't intended to match or advance the catalog. It's for fun, for a tour and for making some fucking dough, none of which anyone should have a problem with!!
1. 1970
2. Shake Appeal
3. No Fun
4. I Got A Right
5. T.V. Eye
Also, Mike Watt looks strangely like a George Bush impersonator in that photo.
1. loose
2. tv eye
3. search and destroy
4. 1970
5. loose (again)
guess what my fave album is --
btw hendo -- PSH is the BSE "raindance"
1. 1970
2. Loose
3. 1969
4. Cock In My Pocket
5. Shake Appeal
Fun House Stuben? thats mine, but what the hell.
PSH is the BSE, but MJW is the BHOTB
Any grouping of five songs off the S/T and Fun House LP's will do it for me.
The Stooges were dying after their first 2 albums, they really died before punk started, and bearing the name "Stooges" today is a crime.
My fave traX are:
1. TV eye
2. I got a right
3. 1969
4. Gimme some skin
5. Cock in my pocket
And by the way, if the MC5's "Gotta keep movin'" (HOORAY Dennis Thompson) were written by The Stooges, too, it would bear No.1 in the above list!!!

There's definetly a huge difference between the first two records and Raw Power, but its still got some killer songs on it. I've put off listening to the whole new album (I've only heard a few tracks), but when we saw them live at the Little Steve Garage Festival a few summers ago, The Stooges were a highlight on a day filled with them.
Well Said, Hendo
1. 1970
2. No Fun
3. Loose
4. 1969
5. TV Eye
Nowadays, I'd probably listen more to "Little Doll" or "Not Right" than "TV Eye," but that's only because I played "TV Eye" 80 million times in high school, so... that's pretty much the highest endorsement for a song, isn't it?
