About this album

Party is one of Iggy Pop’s most distinctive early solo albums, sharpening his post-Stooges momentum into a leaner, new wave-era statement. Released in 1981, it was produced by Tommy Boyce, whose pop sensibility gives the record an unusually polished edge while still leaving room for Pop’s snarling charisma and restless humour. The album arrived after the rawer Scary Monsters period and shows him working with a more streamlined, radio-conscious sound without losing the unpredictability that made him such a compelling figure. Its mix of irony, swagger and melodic instinct makes Party a notable snapshot of Pop adapting to the changing rock landscape.
