(9-26-12 part 2) STOOGES IN DISGRACE...In Sept. of '64 the KINKS "You Really
Got Me" was Number One all over the globe. IGGY has been quoted as saying that
once he heard the original Blues artists it was hard for him to go back to
listening to British Invasion bands. " I'm sorry", said The IG, " The Kinks are
great, but when you're a young guy trying to find out where your balls are, you
go "Those guys sound like pussies!" Thankfully IGGY found his testes by the time
of RAW POWER. It's hard to imagine the crazed power riffs of RAW POWER without
the pioneering early work of the Brothers Davies. Besides, this is more about
"LOUIE,LOUIE" than it is about the Blues. And just look at these Limeys! Who ya
callin' pussies, Stooge?!?
