i'm starting to think andrew was created by the advertising business, you can't escape him he is on every commercial.

Stooges are always good and those piano demos ar great - pity they didn;t get "Properly" recorded. Which makes me think how about a thread on Raw Power?

Raw Power remix -classic or dud?
taking sides: _fun house_ or _raw power_

three years pass...
The piano recordings are on this heavy liquid 6 cd thing that's coming out. I just looked for a thread on it, but there isn't one.

BOMP! did a compilation 'Open up and bleed', comprising the 'lost' songs that might have made up the third stooges album. It showcases that piano-driven sound extensively.

Sound quality is fair to shitty, but then that goes without saying.

Pilot's Studio Sessions does pretty much the same thing - all those damn post-RP releases are clones of each other. You only need one of them. Certainly not a freakin 6-cd box set.

But all that James Williamson is tempting.

'Blue' Gene Tyranny apparently played electric piano in the band for a time. I don't know if there are any recordings with him.

Like the production of Star Trek genre science fiction novels in which the same Trek plots are recycled again and again, with only the book covers, names of characters, times, and places subject to change, the endless recycling of wretched Stooges demo tapes released as historical CDs will continue and perhaps even accelerate. Some possible titles: Iggy's Piles Opened Up and Bled for You, Pumping for Jim, and The Ignoble Prizes: Achtung mit Asheton, the latter of which Iggy could claim is a tape of the concert at The Joint in the Woods, where he goaded Ron Asheton into dressing in full SS regalia and introduced the show in Deutsch. (See Iggy's bio I Need More for the provenance.)

All of it.

Substitute the names "Ron Asheton" and "Steven Mackay" and you have the exact reason why some of us shelled out for the "Fun House" box!

I tried to find an image of Laurel and Hardy trying to move a piano, unsuccessfully.

"Blue" was in a proto-version of the Stooges, circa '65, i believe, called The Prime Movers.
