This 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection has the drawback of having been drawn primarily from Pop's recordings for A&M Records. Iggy cut two albums for A&M, Blah Blah Blah and Instinct, and to be blunt, they're two of the weakest records of his career, and while listening to four cuts from one and two from the other is better than sitting through the entirety of both, that hardly makes this a good album. The disc is padded out with three live numbers from a 1988 promo-only   [ read more ]

Boasting a big-name producer and appearances from a handful of actual mainstream rock stars, Brick by Brick was a remarkably successful attempt (critically, if not commercially) to create an "event album" around Iggy Pop, so the follow-up came as a surprise -- American Caesar was cut fast and loose in a New Orleans studio, with Malcolm Burn (hardly known for his work in hard rock) in the producer's chair and Pop's road band backing him up. But the real surprise was that {^American Caesa   [ read more ]

From all the different eras of Iggy Pop's recording career, the period spanning 1979 through 1982 was not one of his strongest, as addiction began to hinder his life once more, and as a result, his music. But it's not to say that there weren't a few worthwhile cuts from this era, most of which are featured on the 14-track import, 2004's Artist Collection: Iggy Pop. With bands such as the Cars topping the charts in America, Iggy attempted to hone in on the new wave crowd during this period, as   [ read more ]

Love it or hate it, Beat Em Up is inarguably one of the most appropriate titles Iggy Pop attached to an album in years; after an ill-advised detour into something resembling jazz on 1999's Avenue B, Iggy shifted gears again and served up his most physically punishing album since American Caesar in 1993. Beat Em Up starts out promisingly enough with "Mask," a hyperinsistent three-chord blast that, with its energetic riffing and manic vocals, sounds more like a prime Stooges number    [ read more ]

Iggy Pop reunited with producer David Bowie for Blah Blah Blah. While it adopts a number of different musical styles, the record isn't as cohesive or as ambitious The Idiot or Lust for Life. Instead, it acts as an Iggy sampler, offering a variety of material that is all competently performed, but with the notable exception of a cover of Johnny O'Keefe's "Real Wild Child (Wild One)," rarely compelling. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

While Don Was is best known for his work with mutant funkateers Was (Not Was), he was also a Motor City boy with fond memories of the Stooges' glory days, and when he was hired to produce an album for Iggy Pop, Was said, "The guy is incredibly intelligent, writes great lyrics, is a great singer, and I just wanted to get that across." And he did: Brick by Brick refined Iggy's gifts without watering them down, adding a polish that focused his talents rather than blurring them. Working wit   [ read more ]
