Fun House

The Stooges Make the Ultimate Rock 'n' Roll Statement on Fun House: Primal Punk-Jazz Landmark Is Ranked the 94th Greatest Album of All Time by Rolling StoneExperience the Band's 1970 Effort in Definitive Sound on Vinyl: Mobile Fidelity's Numbered-Edition 180g 45RPM 2LP Set Explodes with Energy, Immediacy, and Force"Do you feel it?" Iggy Pop asks on "Dirt." The answer is patently obvious for anyone who encounters the Stooges' Fun House. This is a record where unabandoned feeling takes precedence, primal energy surges to the fore, outsider attitude snarls with destructive force, electrifying chaos assumes the form of wild joyousness - all of which might very well be impossible to put into words. Legendary Village Voice journalist Robert Christgau even admitted "language wasn't designed for the job" of conveying what many critics and artists believe to be the ultimate rock 'n' roll statement. Sourced from the original master tapes, pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, and housed in a Stoughton gatefold jacket, Mobile Fidelity's 180g 45RPM 2LP set marks the first time this 1970 landmark is available at 45RPM speed. The live-in-the-room characteristics closely identified with Fun House and Don Gallucci's esteemed production - the unrelenting sense of groove; the sheer impact of the rhythms; the ferocity of Pop's heat-seeking vocals; the bruising churn of the low end; the grit, grime, and grind of four dudes and auxiliary saxophonist Steven Mackay bent on breaking into another dimension - emerge with gripping presence, body, and power. The Stooges' most controlled and hot-wired creation, Fun House now adopts the sonic vigor of the atom bomb to which Christgau thought of comparing it. Feel alright, indeed. 1/4" / 15 IPS Dolby A analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to latheNumbered 180g 45RPM Vinyl 2LPLIMITED SPECIAL EDITION
