Sought after ...

Well, this copy is MINT ... still the lesser seen circa '75 pressing some 40+ years of age ... a TOP COPY, as issued in Canada, long ago, direct press from the Elektra stampers, and it boils over with loud energy....

The first flash in the birth of IGGY POP crawling on his belly like a reptile  ...the very 1st Stooges....

Everything the peace and love vibe of the '60s wasn't the Stooges 1969 debut record was: dangerous, violent, chaotic, mean-spirited, and sex crazed. Iggy Pop's monotone birthday lament, "1969" ("War across the U.S.A. / Another year for me and you / Another year with nothing to do"), pretty much sums up the band's coldly disaffected outlook. Producer and Velvet Underground second banana John Cale lends the proceedings an appropriately ominous feel, his transformation of the Stooges into V.U. clones on the 10-minute-plus "All Fall Down" are the band's difinitive acid-eating studio trips. Then Iggy Pop and company turn it on with the mind-numbingly ugly-and-great "I Wanna Be Your Dog" and the distortion-drenched "Real Cool Time."
