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.
And now I want to be your dog…
This creamy LP and a good coat of peanut butter would probably protect me from anything!
Covid will NOT quash my ability to reward my own creativity. I’ve spent a good chunk of my quarantine writing and recording and my reward has been building up my vinyl collection, and discovering The Vault and signing up is easily one of the top highlights. Thanks for making this show accessible to the fans, and for all of your general badassery.
Hey! I already shared my ultra-rare Stooges tape with you! Bring on the hotness, son! HA!
Here comes success!
The best Iggy quote when expalining his inner demons he experieced and channelled when playing with the Stooges: “The Demon says: Fuck you,I don’t want to be like you, I don’t want to live like you, i don’t believe any of the things i’m supposed to be like. You’re all full of shit and good is bad, bad is good, up is down, down is up, the Pope’s not a nice guy….. that’s jsut for starters.” Pretty well sums up The Stooges to me. Congrats on this release! A++
I only got to see The Stooges once, 10 years ago. I got up to the stage, threw my hand up in the air to touch Iggy, and ended up grabbing his inner thigh for what seemed like a dreamy full minute.
Peanut Butter on my nipples never sounded better!
She was bred in old Kentucky but she is just a crumb up here. nyuk, nyuk, nyuk
Perfect medicine to aid in my recovery from open heart surgery.
