"I couldn't really form any sort of opinion based on the clip. Could be great, but sure, more likely to fall in the "mmkay..." category, sad to say. Here's hoping for the former...   "

New Iggy & the Stooges record on its way.

Not sure what to make of this.  I want it to be good, but their last record "The Weirdness" was pretty bad.  Think this will be any different?  The short clip of "Job" doesn't sound terrible.http://pitchfork.com/news/49683-iggy-and-the-stooges-announce-new-album-ready-to-die-diss-the-smashing-pumpkins-in-the-process/See More

Yeah, I'm gonna give the double 10" a spin pretty surely so. I like that format. Haven't had time to hear hair yet though, but the work with WF sounds like a good idea. I like that bands now do that again. Kind of like the old days, ha?

Thanks for listening Alex, I'm off to a hot rod & 50's music weekender in a couple of weeks so I think the next theme might have to be CARS, or if you've got any other ideas I'll see what I can do!!
