So, I could have dug deeper into the Stooges' catalog (In a world where I was God and therefore everything was awesome and not sucky, Penetration is how Guns n' Roses would sound. Also, the celesta). But fuck it, this is the opener, with Ron Asheton's wa-wa, fuzzed-out guitar giving way to that Bo Diddley beat and a solo which takes up the entire second half of the song, meandering its way from nowhere to nowhere, restless, bored and (probably) high just like Iggy. "And now Im gonna be 22 I say oh my and a boo-hoo". Ron Asheton, he played 'til he dropped.

Which was the member of The Stooges that supposedly didn't do smack? Was it Ron or was it Scott, it certainly wasn't James Williamson.
Someone has read Please Kill Me, or as it should be called "Please Kill Me if Lou Reed says it's okay"
