Big moment for me. Also been listening to KONE - Yellowstone today. Damn good record I somehow napped on for almost 2 months. Hmm. |

Just listened Pop`s the Idiot first time in many years. Yes, itīs so great! Hard to understand, why I didnīt like it earlier (it was quite the same time when I found Joy Division). Well maybe the reason is that I was same time very in Raw Power and theyīre so much different. I think not just the Division members but also Martin Hannett has really listened this and used the soundworld in JD`s Unknown Pleasures. The Idiot has really been ahead of itīs time, itīs really pre-new wave & goth album. Havenīt also listened Lust For Life a long time, so I listened it also. Itīs of course still sounded great, but really in a more typical Iggy way. Going to listen the Idiot a lot in the near future!

Future - DS2 (Dirty Sprites 2)
I'm kind of impressed by some of the sonic elements at play here... production and what not. But I don't really understand why so many people seem to think Fu is the new King of Rap. Judging by the iTunes reviews, he's just "" ("fire" ... Slang for "good" mixed with "exciting" and a little bit of "WTF"... I know, language is dying and it's tragic), but his actual rapping so often feels lazy and extremely forgettable to me. I liked his first LP, and I've liked his mixtapes, but mostly because of the arrangements, the guest spots (see KanYe in "Trophy") and the heats. But I think he falls victim to the same kind of rather thoughtless slurring about "xannies" and "Molly" that Young Thug showed us on his unfathomably disappointing retail debut this year. Sometimes I just think, this isn't even rap anymore! There is no attempt to convey meaning, no apparent desire to be understood, no cadence to speak of.... It's just like some crossbreeding of monotone rap, monotone singing, and something approximating reggae chant-riffing without the melody (so, also monotone) I'm not sure I'm convinced this guy is the savior of hip hop. |

It's the only Iggy album that I think really grows on you. Not knocking his other stuff at all but even an album like Fun House, you hear it and almost immediately know if it's your thing or not. Positively or negatively, its impact is almost instant, which I suppose was ultimately what The Stooges - and by extension punk - was all about. The Idiot's doing something else, as though it doesn't even care if you have a response at all. Perhaps it was an album that deep down Iggy was only really making for himself and Bowie. |

Or, rather, an album Bowie was making for Iggy to "come back". The Pop has said The Idiot was David's project, who produced it (with a bunch of help from Visconti, I'm sure, the way Mick Ronson handled a lot of the work on Transformer); all songs are credited to both of them ("Sister Midnight" also to Carlos Alomar), Bowie played keyboards on the respective tour (making sure to stay in the background), and I do believe the Thin White Duke really thought Iggy had a shot at commercial success with that record.

You're right but they were both in Berlin to get clean and, regardless of Bowie's (and perhaps even Iggy's) original intentions for the album, as the recording sessions evolved it evidently became far more a reflection of their own quite insular situation, as well as obviously their fascination with Berlin itself - Bowie's in particular. The weirdest thing is that it was a commercial success (in the UK anyway) but I do get the feeling that by the time they'd finished it they'd done all they could (albeit unintentionally) to kill its chart potential stone dead. |

Anyway itīs quite the same who made the Idiot. Itīs just so great. And I think I have to also listen Low again, but itīs not long time I listened Heroes many times and I like much more the Idiot. Bowie achieved never the same as Iggy as vocalist. |

Are you a fan of Low? When you say you should listen to it again, do you mean that you should give it another chance, or that you haven't listened to it enough to really have a solid opinion of it? I'm just curious... Low is far and away one of the best Bowie albums ever in my opinion. In fact it may just be my favorite, though I tend to cite Station To Station as his best. |

Completely agree. It's all been downhill from there. Okay, fine, a few flashes of brilliance. Mostly, Bowie ruins everything. Just ask Lou Reed. |

Listened now Wipers Is This Real? & Youth Of America. The last one is so great, really hard to say which is better, Youth or Over the Edge. Really like also Is This Real?, full of young, fresh energy!
Really have been enjoyed Wipers, Minutemen & Meat Puppets from the same era this summer. |
