Iggy- New Values
 
why does this album never get any respect? it's probably my favorite iggy solo album, it's a lot better than nightclubbing, and has some of iggy's best/worst lyrics:

" Well I'm gonna tell you about girls.
They're all over this world
Some have beautiful shapes
I wanna live to be ninety-eight"

" I'm healthy as a horse
Ahh, but everything is spinnin'
And if I use a gun I'm sure to go to prison "

and who can forget the ig's look into the world of short people:

"i'm only five foot one
I got a pain in my neck
I'm looking up in the city
What the hell what the heck"

and probably the best cover photo of all his solo records, too. seriously, do yourself a favor and buy this album, it's a classic.

I bought a copy of Black Flag's Jealous Again 12" that had the inner sleeve of this album with it. Never heard the album though.

"i'm bored" is such a great song, and i love the production as well. no flaws at all, a serious high point to his career.
