IGGY'S NEW ALBUM

I'm super interested to hear Iggy Pop's new album, Preliminaires. Iggy has been signed to Virgin forever, and now EMI subsidiary Astralwerks is going to be releasing the album on June 2. I think Iggy needed to do something different.  The Stooges' reunion album from a few years back was OK, but didn't approach the greatness of their earlier albums, and Iggy's solo albums haven't been super-inspired.  I think he needed to do an album that he had fun making. I do wonder if he'll keep playing Stooges concerts with Scott Asheton and Mike Watt
