"Pop's survivor message to the masses" 'Lust for Life' is a brilliant album ft some of Pop's best songs (title track, The Passenger, Tonight, Turn Blue, Success, 16). It was the last great collaboration between The Idiot and The Oddity until Iggy’s eighth solo album Blah Blah Blah in 1986.

I know its a hot take, but I definitely think Slip It In is Black Flag's best album. The title track (and the album opener) is iconic. You're Not Evil is excellent and the constant slow-fast dynamics are great. Really solid effort all around.
