Iggy Pop: Party (1981)


I agree with this:

Party has been poorly received by critics.

Charlotte Robinson of PopMatters called it "a bizarre train wreck of an album". Mark Deming of AllMusic wrote "Part of Iggy Pop's unique sort of integrity is that the man doesn't seem to know how to sell out, even when he tries, and Party, one of the strangest albums of his career, is living proof."

Yeah, it's sad. Just check out this video.

Somewhat bizarrely, my copy is from Germany, even though it was pressed in Canada and the USA. I paid under $3. Even that may have been too much.
