If you're a fan you might want to check this out. Really good interview. Iggy is a cool guy.
Listen Here
The work of the artist formerly known as James Jewell Osterburg Jr. is collected in a new CD, A Million in Prizes: The Iggy Pop Anthology. Iggy Pop's career began in the late 1960s as frontman for The Stooges. A solo career produced more pioneering music even as Pop overcame a heroin addiction.

Thanks Pedro. A very significant musician who slipped under my radar. I'm just starting to listen to this guy- Have been listening to Raw Power and Lust for Life. Both sound great.
Raw Power rocks. :)Quote:

He looks possessed in that picture. One mean and tough lookin' SOB... to say the least!
I love Iggy, but the dude can't keep his shirt on. I don't get it. I mean, if it's the pants I understand, but shirts are cheap.
In the interview he said it's because no matter what type of shirt you wear, it says something about you.Quote:

As an undergraduate, I was in a band called El Camino; we covered "I Wanna Be Your Dog."Quote:
