Unreleased Stooges For Raw Power Reissue
New multi-disc box set to feature tonnes of unheard material
A brand new box set edition of The Stooges’ Raw Power will feature no less than 15 unreleased tracks.
The album will be reissued on 27 April to coincide with the band’s forthcoming tour which will see them play the record from start to finish each night.
The first disc of the box set will contain the newly remastered Raw Power, featuring David Bowie’s original mix for the album that was previously out of print.
The second disc boasts the famed 1973 Georgia Peaches bootleg, comprised of an unreleased soundboard recording of a concert the Stooges performed in Atlanta, Georgia.
The third disc features four more outtakes — "I’m Hungry,” "I Got a Right,” "I’m Sick of You” and "Hey, Peter” — and alternate mixes of four tracks: "Shake Appeal,” "Death Trip” "Gimme Danger” and "Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell.”
There will also be a new one-hour "Making of Raw Power” documentary by Morgan Neville featuring new interviews with Iggy Pop, James Williamson, Scott Asheton, Mike Watt, Johnny Marr, and Henry Rollins, plus performance footage from Festival Planeta Terra, São Paulo, Brazil, November 2009. A heap of memorabilia and photos will also be included.
