Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
With Lou Reed settling into a comfortable, BBC-sponsored retirement, David Bowie lapsing into a deeper coma of pretentious irrelevance by the minute, and Mick Jagger dedicating his life to the sale of Rolling Stones merchandise, it's good to see that Iggy Pop--rock & roll's original wild child--is still the consummate punk rocker. It's remarkable, also, though, that he's still alive--Nude and Rude... is surely testament to Iggy's iron constitution. A retrospective covering his career from The Stooges's eponymous 1969 debut through to 1990's Brick By Brick, Nude and Rude... can crudely be split into three parts. The Stooges' grimy "I Wanna Be Your Dog" and "Search and Destroy" are magnificent howls of scuzz-rock, "Nightclubbing", "Lust For Life" and "The Passenger" are fruits of Iggy's dramatic rebirth in 1977, and, if the later work isn't as flattering to Iggy's legend, remember that it's still better than any of Reed, Bowie or Jagger's output at the turn of the century. --Louis Pattison
CD Description
For those unfamiliar with the careening, death-defying lifeand music of Iggy Pop, NUDE & RUDE provides a concise and potent overview. Opening with tracks from his seminal late '60s outfit, The Stooges, the assault is immediate. "Search & Destroy", "No Fun", and "Gimme Danger" all possess an animalistic power to which many bands aspire but very few achieve.The countless cover versions that have surfaced over the years have only underscored the Stooges' bone-rattling urgency.
Iggy's solo career has been more fitful. Beset by various forms of self-abuse, Pop resurfaced in the late '70s withDavid Bowie (who has produced Pop a number of times). Bowietossed his pop agenda into Pop's molten rock. "Lust for Life" and "The Passenger" may not have the danger and excitement of Pop's previous work, but they are firm statements of renewed his artistic vigour. Pop returned in the mid-'80s and he has been here to stay ever since. The cannonball "Cry forLove", the uncompromising "Cold Metal", and the pop friendly "Candy" end NUDE & RUDE on a high note, in keeping with Pop's renewed sense of purpose.
