Rhino Records put out a box set of the "Fun House" sessions back in 1999 or 2000. It was really good.

Iggy's still a "real wild child", bless his heart.

I'd love to see Iggy's "I'm a Conservative" used by our team in TV advertising as an in your face affront to the Rats ,, I think it was on "Soldier" along with "dogfood" ....

I am never amazed at the crap "artists" that FReepers seem to enjoy; Clapton, Nugent, etc.

I was never able to get into the Starlight Vocal Band. I almost envy you.

Very powerful video if you consider the lyrics, the 'stars' who appear in it, how they've lived their lives and their reactions to the lyrics.

Hopper looks like he "gets it".
Harrelson does not.
Keth Richards first looks merely sardonic, then really uncomfortable and finally self-conscious.

Fascinating and insightful video, IMO.
