AUSTIN POWER


     (10-16-12)  SOUND ADVISE...No pontificatin' today..just a cool shot of IGGY in action at this last weekend's (10/14/12) Austin City Limit's Music Festival. And some killer news...after a quick perusal of JAMES WILLIAMSON's FB page I found out the STOOGES are in the process of recording NEW material! True, "The Stooges", "Fun House", & "Raw Power" set such a high ROCK N' ROLL  standard that it seems it would be impossible to reach those heights again ( see "The Weirdness"). But in the recent past both IGGY and JW have stated that if they couldn't come up with something they felt matched past glories then they wouldn't release anything at all ( it's not like the IG or JW needs the moolah). So I'm gonna take it on faith that if they're that confident about the quality of their new stuff then it's gonna blast our brains. And if not, well...we'll always have the Palladium...
    BTW...A while back on JW's Facebook page people were giving James suggestions for who should produce any new STOOGE's material. I told James he and the IG should just do it themselves. He liked that idea the best. If the sound of the new recordings are anywhere near as good as JW's recent re-mix of "KILL CITY" then we gots nuthin' to worry about on that ( sonic ) score.
   P.S. ..I guess I ended up pontificating a little anyway....to quote Rob Tyner: "Enuff preachin'.....THE JAMS!"
