"Kill City" by Iggy Pop and James Williamson (1977)

[Dummy Gaynuts]

Best Iggy Pop album. He and Williamson recorded it while Iggy was in the nuthouse for being a DRUGGED OUT FREAK

Iggy looks like a faggot but seems like a cool guy. It's a tough one.

I remember reading some Iggy Pop biography on some long trip one time and I don't know if the guy who wrote it was just a dickhole or what, but I was blown away by how uninteresting it was.

He did the theme to Repo Man so he is ok in my book. I take back my comment.

fuck man, that is a great movie. When Harry Dean Stanton tries to talk to Emilio Estevez from his car and Emilio says "fuck off, queer"

Really like the Stooges' music and some of his solo stuff, but from what I've heard, Iggy Pop is a cradle-robbing cumia unfortunately.

It's such a mannnnnnnnnnnn movie but I don't care I love it. All the food having generic labels is great.

That's one of my favorites also. I've never heard the Cumia stuff before but no bad gossip about a musician surprises me. He played a pedo creep in tank girl too if i'm remembering correctly

The scene of him opening the beer and pouring it on the floor gets my ribs too.

He hung around with Bowie so it comes with the territory. It was a young groupie girl from what I remember. Musicians back then openly did that kind of stuff (Zeppelin, etc.) I can separate enjoying someone's music from their deserving a trip to the gallows. Most famous musicians are irredeemable faggots, but they make cool noises so credit where it's due.

"He was too, you guys" always gives me a good laugh. Also when they throw that Dianetics book into the bonfire.

That soundtrack is pure gold:

Also had the Circle Jerks doing lounge music while wearing gold lamé suits

And produced by one of the Monkees! That film's a real trip. One of the formative movies of my youth. Also loved the Burning Sensations cover of the Modern Lovers on there.

Iggy talking about the movie.

 

[ミスタースパーコル]

Liked his song with Ryuichi Sakamoto.

I always liked Iggy, but IMO he works best in small doses. "Funhouse" and "Raw Power" still hold up really well. "Kill City" is the best of his post-Stooges stuff, a lot of hit & miss albums in his discography.
