IGGY & THE STOOGES: 'Raw Power Live: In The Hands Of The Fans' DVD, Blu-Ray Due Next Month

August 3, 2011

MVD Entertainment Group has set a September 27 release date for the IGGY & THE STOOGES "Raw Power Live: In The Hands Of The Fans" DVD and Blu-ray. The set is described as "the visual document of the reformed STOOGES' (Iggy Pop, Scott Asheton, James Williamson, Steve Mackay, Mike Watt) 'Raw Power' performance at the All Tomorrow's Parties Festival on Friday, September 3, 2010."

Of the performance, Ben Ratliff of the New York Times wrote, "Iggy Pop, now 63, knew that his body language translated into still photographs resembling Mannerist paintings... THE STOOGES attacked the album's eight songs, in a different order, just about perfectly."

Iggy and the band sound flawless as they rip through the archetype riffage of "Search and Destroy", "Raw Power", "Gimmie Danger" and more.

"Getting this top-notch performance of the entire 'Raw Power' album by THE STOOGES realized a lifelong dream," said Iggy Pop. "This shit really sizzles and we are so obviously a crack band in a class of our own."
