The Stooges mainman’s rare solo and acoustic recordings – still wild and rock'n'roll! With Stooges & Pop favourites, unheard covers and five original songs unavailable elsewhere. The first time on vinyl, a limited purple vinyl 2xLP in gatefold sleeve (Its also a DVD/CD set). In the UK it's a RSD Black Friday release on November 29 2024; it's a regular release elsewhere.
This double-album captures Iggy without any band in various environments, mostly acoustic and also electric, but - just as rock’n’roll as ever! Stripped down versions of I Wanna Be Your Dog, Louie Louie, Nightclubbing, Jonathan Richmond’s Pablo Picasso with just 4-strings on his guitar and many other favourites as they’ve rarely been heard – and five otherwise unreleased songs*. The set comprises a solo acoustic show from Barcelona, an acoustic studio session from LA, a solo electric gig from Paris, and more solo tracks from elsewhere. Check out the video-clips below.
