(8-1-12) NOWHERE WITH A
BULLET!..A new feature here at the Blooge! Criteria: A fabulous A-side with an
equally bitchen/interesting/rare B-side. Plus a cool picture sleeve and some
vague IG connect.
The STOOGES' first 45 changed everything. After appearances
on Ed Sullivan, the Smothers Brothers, and the Carol Burnett shows the single
shot straight to number one, securing the band a headlining gig at Woodstock where after
taking the brown acid IGGY threw up all over Abbie Hoffman and...actually, the
single and LP went nowhere fast. Most people, if they knew about the band at
all, hated them and thought they were a bad joke. Hippy DJ's wrote "
dogshit" on the STOOGES" LP covers and used them as frisbees. Maybe
the STOOGES should have named themselves
