Funhouse

60s 70s 180 Gram Rhino LP cut from original masters and housed in a Gatefold sleeve The debut album from 1969 was immense but nothing could quite prepare you for the brutal masterpiece that is 'Funhouse' it is something that is neither pretty nor wholesome and it succeeds almost entirely on the powerful chemistry at work Iggy screams shouts yelps and grunts over a barrage of simplistic music with simplistic lyrics and at times no music at all 'la blues' Other great tunes present here are 'Down on the Street' the excellent opener '1970' a perfect protopunk anthem and the title track simply one of the finest rawest most visceral songs ever recorded This is one of the best albums of all time if you have any blood in your veins buy a copy and you won't be disappointed
