Reviews

I’m puzzled that this record typically sells for $30 - $60 range. Can anyone explain why? I love Iggy Pop but this particular record is mediocre to my ears. New Values, Soldier, Party and Zombie Birdhouse LP’s are top notch.

Clean pressing. Had to boost the bass a bit vs. the original CD, but the sound is full and detailed. Analogue distortion seems to mitigate the '90s digital recording excesses. I could have done without the bonus track, "Livin' On The Edge On The Night," which I didn't like then and has aged poorly. But overall, I'm thrilled to finally have this album on vinyl. A highlight of '80s-'90s Iggy.

Just found "Brick by Brick Sampler Tape with 5 songs including Home (Sanitized Edit) with great black n white illustration not on regular release.
