@William Main It was about 10 years on from the Stooges when I bought " New Values" in 79'. Sort of heard of Iggy by then. Walking past Aquarius Records on Castro in SF. Saw the album in the window and just went in and got it. Whiplashed me out of my musical torpor. Got "Kill City" next and was never the same.

Sorry to do this but it's important now. When you here PPE coming in on the "SKY TRAIN" that means our tax dollars are being used by the military to get supplies in from all over the world and than - wait for it - turned over to private commercial companies to sell to the highest bidder world - wide. Let that sink in. The Admiral running the "Sky Train" said he wasn't there to disrupt the supply chain. No that is exactly why you are there PUTZ! Death profiteering with JARED otherwise known as MILO MINDERBINDER in charge. Like I said sorry to do this but it's necessary now.
