(Ok, they have their place, and provide some hints of what Iggy and Bowie would later come up with, but that's not the mood I'm after when I pull out my Stooges records.) So for me, I take those five killer tracks, tack on the highlights of the follow-up album (most notably "T.V. I can do without the more metallic "Not Right," leaving just the quiet, spooky "Ann" and agonizing long dirge "We Will Fall," which sound better suited to their label-mates the Doors. Those four tracks are pretty much it five if you count "Little Doll," which is also great but essentially a "1969" reprise. To be fair, the album is a little slight. ![]() "1969," "No Fun," "Real Cool Time," and of course "I Wanna Be Your Dog" take their 3-4 chords, drive them through Dave Davies' broken guitar amp from "You Really Got Me" about 10 times, and tack on Iggy's perfectly simplistic no-frills lyrics, and arrive at a blissed out pre-punk joyful fury.

Though I was already a huge fan of the Velvet Underground by then, the other late 60s act who share credit as the two essential proto-punk forebears, I'd been a little frightened to delve into the Stooges. Demento record I bought) was "I Wanna Be Your Dog" by the Seven Stooges - a novelty tune that merged the Stooges' original with imitations of The Three Stooges.Īt some point, it occurred to me that I should check out the real Stooges, and finally got around to listening to the first album. One song I first heard on the show (and on a Dr. Demento, the famed DJ who played novelty records and other humor bits (perhaps best remembered as the guy who brought Weird Al to the public). ![]() In high school, like a lot of the weird music nerds, I would occasionally listen to Dr. I came to the Stooges in a roundabout fashion.
