Iggy Pop

Acoustics KO – 2LP limited purple vinyl

UK: Black Friday November 29 2024

The Stooges mainman’s rare solo and acoustic recordings – still wild and dangerous!

Stooges & Pop favourites, unheard covers and 5 songs unavailable elsewhere

First time on vinyl.  Limited purple vinyl 2xLP in gatefold sleeve.  (Also a DVD/CD set)

The first time on vinyl for this double-album, capturing 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 2LP set comprises a solo acoustic show from Barcelona, an acoustic studio session, a solo electric gig from Paris, plus more solo tracks from elsewhere. 

Skydog Records' first Iggy release was in 1976 with the riotous “last ever Stooges show”, Metallic KO; this is its alternative hidden gem.  Iggy Pop continues to tour the world as well as presenting radio shows. 

 28 Tracks: Mixing The Colors, Louie Louie, I Wanna Be Your Dog, Pablo Picasso, Loose, Gloria, Social Life, Highway Song, Beside You (Sputnik TV 1993, Barcelona); Nightclubbing; Miss Argentina (acoustic); Planet of Dogs (monologue), Butt Town, Foolish Dreams*, Beggar*, The Wind*, Starry Night, Brick By Brick, I Am*, Think Alone*, LA Blues (studio demos LA, 1990).
