The Stooges
Live at Goose Lake: August 8th, 1970
scum stats: a shit-ton on black vinyl, 500 on purple vinyl, 1000 with screen-printed cover and cream colored vinyl, 17 copies with custom colored vinyl and multi-color screen printed cover (only given to family and friends, good luck ever getting your hands on one of these, this is why we own a pressing plant)
My life could be all downhill from here. Third Man is releasing a Stooges record that I've personally shepherded through the process and I just hope the rest of my life is not like all the Japanese tourists who suffer Paris Syndrome.
Anyway, today is a day of rejoice and I want to pass along that rejoice to you, the faithful readers. I'm giving away ONE copy of the Stooges "Live at Goose Lake" record here to whomever just has the arbitrarily "best" comment in below. So do it up good.
That person will be able to choose between a purple vinyl copy, a cream colored one, a test pressing, a standard boring black vinyl copy, but not the limited edition of 17 unless their comment reveals that they are sitting an ANOTHER previously unheard Stooges recording which we can also release on Third Man.
I've literally spoken more about this release than any other new title on Third Man ever and possibly...more than any other record I've EVER spoken about. Shit, there's Dirtbombs albums I've not spoken a lick about and this damn release has me on over twenty interviews so far and still going.
So as I've said enough about this one already, just check out the sublime beauty that is "Funhouse" live.
Have you ever showered in stage sweat in the pale spotlight?
Also, this has been on a loop since I finally got my copy on the 10th. The wife is getting restless.
never thought I’d see a Stooges live release that would matter as much as Metallic K.O. (which I’ve been lugging from apartment to apartment since I was a teen) but here we are!

@Big40 outside of Vault pressings, just lemme know what stats you’re looking for. I’m a fairly accommodating guy
I love scum stats. It’s kind of a guilty pleasure. When will TMR make their scum stats public for all TMR releases/pressings?
I want your copy so bad….I just don’t think I can handle that kind of responsibility. Purple is my favorite. Go Vikings.
who would have won an arm wrestling match in 1970? Iggy or Rob Tyner?

Been a fan since I was a kid.. oh so long ago. Thank you so much!
