V.A. - We Will Fall - The Iggy Pop Tribute



Pieced together with newly recorded cuts and previously released tracks, We Will Fall: The Iggy Pop Tribute is an average tribute record that will only be of interest to hardcore Iggy fans. Boasting an artist roster divided between the obscure (Blanks 77), the predictable (Joey Ramone, Joan Jett), the superstar (Red Hot Chili Peppers), and arcane (Jayne County), the record has a handful of good cuts, but none of the songs come close to matching the intense, crazed fury of Iggy's original versions, nor do they offer significantly new interpretations of warhorses like "Search & Destroy," "1969" and "Funtime." So, it's another tribute album designed for collectors, either of the saluted artist or the featured bands, since the performances will make casual, curious listeners wonder what the big deal is... by Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
