i've got all three stooges albums, but nothing else. i just heard "i gotta right" for the first time and i'd really like to find this sort of stuff... by that, i mean the other stuff they recorded once they got back together. i'm not all that interested in a bunch of live recordings and whatnot (although if they never got around to recording certain songs, i guess live recordings will suffice), but i have no idea where to begin.
kill city? gimme a clue, please.

If you want everything then that Heavy Liquid box is probably the place to go. I think the first two discs are studio sessions.

I'm not sure there's much for non-live cuts that aren't Kill City? Kill City for me has always been this album with tons of great songs, but like James Williamson's guitars don't sound right, Iggy doesn't sound totally into it...I think I actually prefer the live bootlegs (particularly Open Up And Bleed as mentioned above, though there seems to be a deluge of these sort of bootlegs available <mostly on Bomp?> and I'm not up on all of 'em)
Metallic KO doesn't sound the greatest though it's a pretty fun recording as it seems there's a biker gang after Iggy.
xpost Well shut my mouth wrt lack of non-live stuff.

The original open up is def the one to go for, but watch out as there's a fake open up and bleed with a slightly inferior tracklisting

FYI, there is a reissue of Kill City in the pipeline and it sounds a MILLION times better. Stay tuned.

hrm. how will i know which open up is the one to go for? any ways to tell?
― zingzing, Wednesday, 14 April 2010 23:59 (sixteen years ago)
The problem with Kill City is that it sounds like demos. Knowing The Stooges, you can kind of fill in the blanks on what could have been done with the material. It's not a terrible listen or anything, but it is what it is.
That being said, I Got A Right is intense as anything Iggy ever did. That tune is punk as fxxk.

Kill City Rules. I think the songs are uniformly great although I would be interested in some kind of remastered rerelease thingy.

Year Of The Iguana is a kind of best of the outtakes CD also on Bomp! that's pretty damn good.
I really like Kill City. It doesn't really sound like the Stooges but it's still great.

It seems like I caught a glimpse of a set of Stooges recordings, probably live, from 1971. I believe it was four discs. When I went back to the blog, it was nowhere to be found. Does anyone know anything about this?
