Produktbeschreibungen

Amazon.com

With his collection of personal vignettes, I Want More, Iggy Pop gives us a highly charged and stylized view into one of rock music's more colorful and important characters. Ranging from a few terse paragraphs to several pages, the book's sections chronicle the patchwork of Iggy's early life, following Jimmy Osterberg as he makes the complete transformation into Iggy Pop.

While detailing the escapades in his life and career up to the 80s, Iggy's nakedly autobiographical style bridges the public view of the rock innovator (first famous for rolling in glass onstage) with the private man from Ann Arbor, Michigan, who swore that "I will not let myself disappear." We see Iggy high on coke, stabbing himself with drumsticks, and living through what most people can only read about. But by the end of the book, Iggy has become more than a punk rock icon; he has become a real person with a tangible history.

The anecdotes and philosophical musings in I Need More are surrounded by a wide variety of black-and-white photographs as well as lyrics from songs written throughout Iggy's rise to international stardom. The photos are diverse, with baby photos of Jimmy Osterberg and Iggy's first bands, The Iguanas and The Prime Movers, set next to ones taken during Stooges years and during Pop's collaborations with David Bowie. Many of the photos are live and candid, though there are also a number of professional rock portraits familiar to Rolling Stone readers.

I Need More provides an open, honest view into one musician's life at the beginning of the punk rock movement, a musical and political period both inspired and influenced by Iggy and his best band, The Stooges. The book's raw prose manages to capture the excess and power that marked punk rock's rebellion against the establishment, drove the Stooges' sound, and propelled the man and the band to a rock-and-roll recklessness that had been lost in popular music.

This autobiography is just amazing! Everything about it makes me want to read it over and over! From Iggy being arrested for murder, to his imaginary friend during his childhood. This book does not only capture the true meaning of Iggy's music, it reveals what Iggy is all about. Behind the pencil stabbings, the swearing, and the shirtless "idiot" from Detroit, is a simple man that believes the American Music Industry needs a Union. (Not surprised by this, he came from the capitol of UAW.) Most of the pictures take you into his childhood, his music, and his concerts. (The nude picture is the only picture I can't stand.) Many artists are considered to have "sold out" when they write autobiographies, all Iggy Pop had to do was find his diary.

This nonlinear autobiography of one of the most electrifying performers of the last thirty years is as revealing as it is unrevealing. Iggy leaves out huge gaps of his history, notably because they were horrible times (he was in an institution for awhile). For a clearer picture of his "untold" biography check out the great book "Please Kill Me." The characters in Iggy's life (like the "imaginary mexican," roadie John Adams and the girl he wishes he slept with from his neighborhood) make this book all the more interesting, as well as the tales of drug abuse and rockin' with Bowie, etc. Great photographs, too.

Four stars just because I love him so much! This book has great photos which really help capture Mr. Pop's persona. This work does seem to have been culled from transcriptions of taped interviews/musings. Anecdotes and oral history are one of the best ways to relate how the culture and times influenced the music. However, this work could benefit from commentary from other performers, aquaintances, journalists, and so on. Mr. Pop's perspective is unique and certainly worth reading. One gets the feeling there is a lot more background information and detail that could have been presented in a more comprehensive work.
