I wasn't besmirching the A-side, but the B-side is clearly conceptual. You have "1970", which starts as a more traditional Stooges song but then unravels into something more anarchic once the sax comes in, then "Fun House" further devolves into just a bassline with the guitar and sax interweaving around it, and then "LA Blues" completely deconstructs into balls out free jazzy chaos. Like the band was descending ever further into more radical territory with each song. The A-side doesn't do that and is more traditional throughout.
