Iggy And The Stooges - Metallic 'KO

I typically wouldn't post or write about "Metallic 'KO", because what's more to say about one of the all-time great live records, and the onstage meltdown of one of my favorite bands? I can only jump on top of a pile of great reviews and dry hump my way into the legacy, you know.

It's worth me sharing this, though, in case you're one of the heads who've never received the sacrament of Iggy and his Stooges getting pelted with loose change, threatened by bikers and giving back twice as much hate. And the reason is that Jungle Records just put out a collection of all their Ig releases over the years, starting with this here classic as disc #1. Some kind soul sent me a copy, and it's all I want to listen to. The collection also has both sets (October 1973 and February 1974) that make up "Metallic 'KO"s contents in remastered forms, as well as a number of other cool live and studios rarities.

This, tho...the "Raw Power" lineup of the Stooges, plus Scott Thurston on piano...phew. Give me all the medium drugs and set me loose. It's almost 50 years old and it's still an incredibly sexy, dangerous record.
