Product Description

Product Description

A Million in Prizes: The Antology is a double album chronicling Iggy Pop's career from the first Stooges album in 1969 to the present day. It is the first time that Iggy’s career has been compiled so comprehensively and the track listing is phenomenal. CD1 takes in the highlights of the three Stooges albums; The Stooges, Fun House and Raw Power plus Kill City the album Iggy made with James Williamson in 1975, plus the classic early solo albums, Lust for Life and The Idiot. CD2 takes us up to the present day with all killers and no fillers and the added bonus of two duets – the wondrous "Well Did You Evah" with Debbie Harry from the Red Hot and Blue charity album and "Candy" with Kate Pierson from the B52's. This 2 CD collection also includes sleeve notes that provide a career retrospective and are highlighted with quotes from some of music’s most influential artists, such as David Bowie, Debbie Harry, Henry Rollins, Chrissy Hynde and many more.

Amazon.co.uk

Rock music's most enduring reprobate and a role model for every new generation of screaming nihilists, Iggy Pop once claimed to be "the world's forgotten boy". Conversely, A Million In Prizes reminds us that the man who patented punk several years before the first gob left the lips of Britains' Jubilee youth insurrectionsists grows less immemorable and more immortal (despite himself) as the years roll by. A thoroughly assessed and long overdue double CD anthology of Pop's entire career A Million In Prizes is an excellent student guide to what can - and ought - to be achieved with loud guitars and a cavalier attitude towards self-preservation. Despite its antiquity, none of the material on Disc One has dated in the slightest, least of all The Stooges' acrid riposte to Sixties hedonism on "No Fun" or the sonic chemical warfare of "Search And Destroy", the lurking "Gimme Danger" or the darkly poetic Bowie-assisted years of "Lust For Life" and "The Passenger". Disc 2 may, at first deceptive glance, throw up fewer established classics but the judicious sifting of the period spanning the Eighties and Nineties - everything from charity Cole Porter duets with Debbie Harry to the Stooges reunion on the Peter Gunn simulation of "Skull Ring" - certainly shows the Igster to have plenty more talent left in the bank. --Kevin Maidment

Like most anthologies, this one is aimed at interested parties, rather than committed fans. Apart from two live tracks, this is all straight from the relevant albums.

The collection opens with the killer 1969, the first of ten tracks from the Stooges days.

The classic 'bowie' years follow, and it is good to hear China Girl and Tonight in their proper versions. The brilliant Passenger makes for an excllent finish to the first disc.

Side two doesn't contain many well known tracks but is just as solid as the first CD. They even manage to pluck two good songs from the underwhelming Blah Blah Blah album. Well, Did you Evah! is a great fun duet with Debbie Harry and the closing Iggy and the Stooges reunion (Skull Ring) makes for a fitting end to this compilation.

This is a thoughtfully compiled and nicely presented collection. The remastered sound is sympathetic to the originals and looses none of the power of the early Stooges work. The two short essays in the booklet are informative for the uninitiated. And that front cover picture is a masterpiece.

Iggy Pop is one of rock's masters. His lust for life is almost unparrelled. If you are a rock fan and don't have any Iggy in your collection yet, then this collection is a great way to start...

If Little Richard was the Quasar of Rock 'n' Roll - and he was! - you could say Iggy is the Quasar of Rock. He has the same elemental, raw, unadulterated energy and directness. If neither existed, we'd have had to invent them.
This excellent compilation, generous at over 150 minutes, takes us through Iggy's career from the edge-of-seat primal power and punk simplicity of his early Stooges days to the later, hardly less urgent music. Some of it is unbearably thrilling, even now.
All the 'hits' are here, mostly on Side One: No Fun, Down on the Street, Gimme Some Skin, Search and Destroy, Raw Power, China Girl, Funtime, the classic Lust For Life, The Passenger, and hilarious Success, and many others Sad and poignant to hear Bowie on some tracks, having co-wrote quite a few too. {We've recently lost Lou & Bowie...I hope Iggy looks after himself.}
There are jewels to be had on CD2, not least the wonderfully titled Some weird Sin, the irresistible Real Wild Child, the exhilarating Home, a stunning duet with the B52s' Katie Pierson on Candy, and a daft, stripped down version of Cole Porter's Well Did You Evah! sung very sexily with Deborah Harry, implicitly transposing the original scenario to more modern times.
Iggy is one of rock's great originals, who took the best of rock and blues and made something his own out of it all. A little guy with a big heart and unignorable voice, a wide grin, and astounding musculature to boot!
38 tracks, over an hour and a half of music, a superb booklet, all in excellent sound - as they say, what's not to like?

Essential.

Definitely an anthology of 2 halves, this one. CD1 is awesome with lots of early Stooges tracks and the best of his solo stuff "Lust for life", "China girl", "The Passenger" etc. "Search and Destroy" is speaker-blowing brilliant! You can tell this is important, seminal stuff - the kind of stuff you've always been aware of but had never really located as being Iggy Pop before. When you get beyond the "wild man of rock" tag and the stories of his legendary debauchery, it comes as a bit of a surprise to realise what a good vocalist he is and has written some very good and interesting lyrics. As for CD2.... apart from the nice melody on "Candy", "Wild America" and "Real Wild Child" I could have done without the rest of it. I always feel record companies are scraping the barrel when they stick live tracks from this or that recent "festival". But as this is likely to be the only Iggy Pop record I buy I'm content enough for the riches contained on CD1.

Having found Iggy in the 70's listened to him in my 20's & lost him when i did the parenting stuff, thinking i'd grown up! I was blast back to something i don't want to lose or leave ( you know that association of times & songs & people etc!). It's all there & for any part-time forty-something it's a must. Just for the reverse sleeve of a man worth a million in prizes. This is something so deserving in it's title & a must in any cd collection. Everyone should listen to this glittering piece of passion & burn with desire & never grow old without a fight

If you have a passing interest in hard rock,punk,new wave and pop music from 1969 to 2003 get this compilation.Then buy all the albums!
I can't think of anything bad to say.It has several lesser known non-official album tracks that are great as well.
Iggy has always been consistantly interesting for at least the past 40 years and judging by his latest album Preliminaires,shows no sign of stopping being interesting.

Iggy's best of, from early years with The Stooges (ignoring his first group The Iguanas, from whence he got his name) through to collaborations with Bowie, dodgy 80's synths, comedy duets, finally ending up...well, back with The Stooges again!

Just about everything on disc one is great, but Raw Power is over represented whilst the ultimate Stooges classic album Fun House gets one measly track. Even with the first ten tracks being Stooges performances, there are still classics missing. Understandable, as Iggy has lots of great solo stuff to fit in to two discs.

Understandable until you get to disc two anyway, where you suddenly face two live versions of Funhouse songs. This is annoying in two ways - firstly becuase albums like Solider, Instinct and American Caesar are under represented, and secondly...why didn't they put the proper Stooges versions of the live tracks on here??? The inclusion of the pathetic Well Did You Evah is baffling. This track has finally stopped being included on Blondie compilations, and now here it is again on Iggy's. Why?????

But what the hey, this can be picked up cheaply, and if you don't know Iggy this will give you a reasonable over view.
