Acoustics Ko

The Stooges mainman’s rare solo and acoustic recordings – still wild and dangerous!Stooges & Pop favourites, unheard covers and 5 songs unavailable elsewhereFirst time on vinyl for Black Friday 2024. Limited purple vinyl 2xLP in gatefold sleeve.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.
