It's here:  The Stooges book to end all Stooges books.  WIth a text primarily comprised of transcriptions of Iggy Pop's reminiscences, starting with a heaping helping of hiis early days when he still faced the world as James Osterberg, this heavyweight hardcover volume goes on to chronicle the lives and times of The Stooges in all their glory and decrepitude.  It is packed with ultra-rare photos of band members, early haunts, little known peripheral players, famous. not-so-famous, and nearly unknown performances and concerts – both early and late –  rare artifacts and much else that will have longtime Stooges fans eyes bulging out of their sockets.  Essential.
