Iggy & The Stooges - You Think You're Bad, Man?: The Road Tapes 73-74 - 5CD

5 CD Box - UK Import

Following a two year hiatus, and by fair means or foul, The Stooges reunited in 1972 for what would become their final album (not including their reunion albums).

1973's "Raw Power" was the result, and the band hit the road in support of the record, resulting in a number of legendary shows.

Collected here for the first time, "You Think You're Bad, Man?" brings together highlights from a year on the road, capturing the band on blistering form and Iggy at his most erratic, confrontational best as he heckles, goads and incites well lubricated audiences across the US.

Captured across these five CDs, all recorded on consumer grade devices are the origins of that punk legend, and arguably of the spirit of punk rock itself - nobody had ever quite taken it to the audience in the way Iggy et al did in 1973. This is fast, furious rock 'n' roll, played by the self-declared hardest working band in the country.
