Double Danger - Iggy & The Stooges (America)


Label:Bomp Records
Released:2000
Highlights:Raw Power
Search And Destroy
Gimme Danger
Open Up And Bleed

Rating: 4/10



Representing the 6th full length instalment in Bomp’s Iguana Chronicles, Double Danger is a double cd containing two previously unreleased 1973 live concerts by Iggy & The Stooges. The first show was recorded on New Years Eve at the Academy of Music in New York while the other show is a November gig from the Latin Casino in Baltimore, MD. Despite the liner notes claiming that these concerts were recorded while the band were at the peak of their powers, this claim (unfortunately) can neither be justified nor refuted due the terrible sound quality, which is no better than your average audience bootleg. Subsequently, I would advise the average fan to avoid this CD. However, if you are a raving Stooges fanatic then this CD will likely be of some interest as both concerts include such rare tracks as Rich Bitch, Wet My Bed, I Got Nothing and Cock In My Pocket and the Latin Casino concert is almost 30 minutes longer than the band’s average set list from this era.
