1999’s somberAvenue B and 2009’s New Orleans jazz-influenced Préliminaires albums revealed that there’s a lot more to Iggy Pop than high-octane garage rock. For 2019’s Free, he again succeeded in his intention to “wriggle out of the frame of rock instrumentation I’d gotten encased in over time.” One of numerous Free tracks that leaned towards jazz,...
Iggy retrospectives usually concentrate on the turbulent sessions for 1980’s Soldier (during which a visiting David Bowie reportedly fought with producer James Williamson) rather than the music that went into the can. With hindsight, however, the album proffered a clutch of classics, including several songs Iggy co-wrote with bassist/ex-Sex PistolG...
“Real Wild Child”’s title seemingly sums Iggy Pop up to a T, yet this legendary song – originally recorded by Johnny O’Keeffe in 1958 – was actually one of Australia’s first fully-fledged rock’n’roll records. Its lyrics were reputedly inspired by a brawl at an Aussie wedding reception that ended up in a full-scale riot, so it seemed ideal fare for ...
The early-to-mid-80s weren’t overly kind to Iggy Pop. A combination of hard luck and a series of soul-destroying business and personal problems found him at a low ebb in 1983, when rookie film director Alex Cox threw Iggy a lifeline, offering him the chance to write and perform the theme for his cult LA film Repo Man, starring Harry Dean Stanton an...
Maybe because it arrived in the slipstream of the killer duo The Idiot and Lust For Life, Iggy’s third solo album, 1979’sNew Values, is often pegged as an underachiever. In reality, though, it’s a bona fide new wave classic, with an on-form Pop aided and abetted by decisive contributions from a hot band that included guitarist/producer James Willia...
The Washington Post’s review of Free said that “Iggy haunts these new songs like a dignified spirit,” suggesting that the album emerged as “an exposition on death, or transcendence, or both.” However, while Freewas atypically ruminative in design, the introspection was leavened by the compelling “Loves Missing,” a strident, Pixies-esque rocker temp...
Iggy’s contract with Arista Records ended after 1981’s Party, but he made a timely relocation to Brooklyn at the same time Blondie guitarist Chris Stein was setting up his new Animal imprint. Though short-lived (it folded in 1984, after Stein was struck down with a serious skin disease), Animal released two cult-level classics, The Gun Club’s Miami...
Iggy’s pop-oriented A&M debut, Blah Blah Blah, got him back on track commercially, but instead of sticking with the formula, he returned with 1988’s hard rock/metal-inclined Instinct, helmed by wunderkind producer Bill Laswell (PiL, Afrika Bambaataa, Herbie Hancock) and featuring Steve Jones on lead guitar. Brash and abrasive, it included several b...
As the infamous Live Metallic KO album confirms, The Stooges literally split up in a hailstorm of violence early in 1974. Iggy, however, didn’t hit rock bottom until the following year, when he spent time sequestered at a psychiatric facility on the UCLA campus in Los Angeles. Granted weekends off to try and get his career back on track, Pop reconn...
The commercial success of 1986’s David Bowie-helmed Blah Blah Blah was critical to the resurrection of Iggy’s career, but it’s an album that polarises opinion. Reviewers criticized its (then bang on-trend) reliance upon synthesizers and glossy production techniques, while Bowie biographer David Buckley has asserted that Iggy referred to it as “a Bo...

Iggy Pop. ROCK · 1989. Recorded on various stages over the course of the late ‘80s, Real Wild Child plays like a compilation of Iggy Pop’s greatest live solo moments. The hard-charging drumbeats of “Lust for Life” are accented here with a funky guitar riff, and “Nightclubbing” has a frantic electric guitar dancing over a steady piano.
