From the mid 1960's, as the drummer for his high-school group, The Iguanas - to leader of the bastard-child band of the late-60's, The Stooges - to the unpredictable solo artist who has spanned the last 20 years - Iggy Pop has consistently challenged the rock'n roll establishment. The Stooges, with their anarchistic blend of the Blues and uncontrollable energy, were considered banal, three-chord noise to most critics but ahead of their time to their fans. In fact, Raw Power (1973) was in the delete bins at most record stores less than a year after its release. Ironically, in 1987, that infamous album was chosen as one of Rolling Stone's Top 100 albums - calling it "...an out of control classic." Siamese Records was the first label to release outtakes of the Raw Power sessions. Pre David Bowie mix.
