IGGY POP Says He Plans On Recording A New STOOGES Album

December 4, 2003

Iggy Pop has told MTV.com that a possibility exists that he will collaborate with WHITE STRIPES frontman Jack White on a full STOOGES studio album that veteran producer Rick Rubin will likely produce. Pop said he decided to work with the STOOGES on their first disc since 1973's "Raw Power" because he was inspired by how productive they were during the songwriting and recording sessions for his latest solo CD, "Skull Ring", and how powerful they've sounded on the eight STOOGES reunion shows they've played so far. Next year he and guitarist Ron Asheton will get together to start writing, and they'll likely enter the studio in time to have the record on the shelves in 2005.

"They want it as fast as possible, and I want it as slow as possible," Pop told MTV.com. "They need the money more than I do right now. I don't know. I'm pretty lazy, but my intention is to do another great record with those guys."
