Iggy Pop wrote "Home" by himself for Brick by Brick, his 1990 album, and cut it with a hired crew that reads like a hard-rock wish list: Slash on electric guitar, Duff McKagan on bass, Kenny Aronoff on drums, with Pop playing guitar alongside them and singing lead.
Don Was produced, and Ed Cherney recorded and mixed it, giving Pop the kind of polished, arena-sized frame the new decade was handing out. The snarl survives the makeover, though: this is still a man who sounds like he'd rather kick the door in than knock.
