 Great Intro to Iggy Sep 21, 2005
For all of you that have heard the hype of Iggy and have never heard Iggy you owe it to yourself to pick this great collection up. You get twelve great songs at a nice cheap price and you will want to listen to them over and over again. This collection, while few in track numbers, spans through just about all of Iggy's little musical phases. While some tracks are accuired tastes, after a few listens you will be hooked. If you have heard The Stooges but not Iggy, be warned, this is not the same rough, hard rock that The Stooges gave us, and while there are some of those kind of songs on here, it is deffinitley softer. Well if you decide to get this off to start your interest in Iggy (which I highly reccomend you do) than you will not be dissapointed, the liner notes are nice and well written, and the sound quality is great.
 For Beginners or Rabid Collectors Only May 28, 2004
With Iggy compilations you kinda hafta decide if you're collecting them all, or just all the albums & the occasional comps that have rare tracks on them. This is just hits & album tracks with a new cover on it. The other pictures inside are also from the same era represented in the songs & there's an essay by someone I never heard of. While there are plenty of cds with songs from "New Values" "Soldier" & "Party" this one is different in that it also features three songs from "The Idiot" & "Lust For Life". That probably just means that one record company bought the other & decided to repackage a series of cds by artists that were on both at some point. Don't get me wrong, I still buy these things to collect & as an excuse to relisten to all these great songs in a different order, but this Virgin/RCA edition isn't that special & they always leave off some of my favorites like "The Endless Sea" & "I Snub You". The four star review comes from that pro & con tug of war.
