Comprehensively extensive 15-LP box set of The Stooges’ classic Funhouse launched

From Loudersound.

Funhouse, the second album by The Stooges, is right up there. An absolute proto-punk classic, packed with youthful fire and fury, it starts with the malevolent Down In The Street and unravels over the course of 36 minutes, a maelstrom of giant riffs and and screeching, relentless, wall-of-noise insanity. It’s a beast of an album.

And now it’s going to be released as a 15 album vinyl box set. Many of The Stooges’ studio sessions have been ransacked over the years for sub-par releases, but the first two albums have been looked after a little better than the rest, and Rhino have pulled out the stops with this latest release, which includes the following.

  • 45 RPM version of Fun House on double LP With 4th side etching
  • The Complete Fun House Sessions
  • Have Some Fun: Live At Ungano’s
  • 2 replica 7” Vinyl Singles: Down On The Street” (Mono Single Edit)/I Feel Alright (Mono Single Edit) [French Picture Sleeve] and Down On The Street (Single Mix)/I Feel Alright (Single Mix)
  • 28-page book with rare photos and an extensive essay by Henry Rollins
  • Ephemera Including two 24″x12″ posters, two 12″x12″ prints, a slipmat, and a 45-adapter
  • Gold-foil Stamped Numbering

1970: The Complete Fun House Sessions will be released on July 17 in an edition of 1970 units. The complete set was originally released by Rhino in 1999 as 7CD box in a limited edition of 3000.

Tracklist below. 1970: The Complete Fun House Sessions is available to pre-order now from both Rhino UK and Rhino US. It’s the perfect gift for the person in your life who’ll listen to 28 different versions of Loose.
