Iggy & The Stooges: Gimme Danger
Scott McLennan, Rip It Up (Australia), March 2013
IT'S 7,000 KILOMETRES from Michigan Palace, Detroit, to The Prince's Palace, Monaco, but for Stooges guitarist James Williamson, the emotional distance is even greater. One of his final shows with the Stooges in 1974 saw the band bottled by hostile bikers angered by frontman Iggy Pop's lip. Within six months of his return to the fold in 2009, Williamson was playing for Prince Albert of Monaco.
