New 3CD Box Offers A Heavy Dose Of Rare & Unreleased Iggy Pop Recordings!

When Michigan based proto-punk band The Stooges called it a day in 1974, the music world mourned the loss of one of the most groundbreaking rock bands ever. Fortunately, the mourning didn’t last long as head Stooge Iggy Pop quickly launched a stunning solo career that arguably eclipsed his auspicious early years. Psychophonic Medicine is an incredible 3CD collection of rare and unreleased gems that focuses on Pop’s crucial late’70s, early ‘80s post-Stooges output. The collection, available everywhere June 23 courtesy of Cleopatra Records, features studio outtakes from the landmark albums The Idiot and Party including never before released alternate mixes and 2 tracks not previously released in any form! Each of these recordings provides important insight into how Pop evolved from punk pioneer to one of the most diverse and adventurous artists in music.

But the party doesn’t stop there - the set also contains some of Iggy’s most electrifying live performances. Disc 2 is the first ever CD release of the legendary show at Paris Palace 1979. This incredible full-length recording showcases Iggy at his most explosive and audacious, ripping through such favorites as “I Wanna Be Your Dog,” “Cock In My Pocket,” “Kill City” and more! A newly discovered audio source from Pop’s San Francisco performance in 1981 wraps up the collection in fine form with scalding versions of “I Need More,” “Lust For Life,” “TV Eye,” “1969,” “The Winter Of My Discontent” and others. Each of the three discs is packaged in its own wallet and comes with a gorgeous 36-page full color booklet featuring rare photos from the archives of longtime Stooges photographer and co-author of the only authorized Stooges biography, Robert Matheu, who also wrote the liner notes. And if that isn’t enough, the box includes a special bonus track of Iggy’s duet with Best Coast’s Bethany Cosentino that was featured on HBO’s True Blood! Both collectors and the curious will find Psychophonic Medicine an irresistible aural trip.

NYC Proto Punk Legend Adny Shernoff Re-emerges

Seminal NYC proto-punk Andy Shernoff is releasing a new 7” vinyl single
“Are You Ready To Rapture” c/w “Make Me Tremble” (the latter co-written
with Andy’s dear friend, the late Joey Ramone). “Are You Ready To Rapture”
will be accompanied by an animated video created by world famous
cartoonist Brian Musikoff which you can view here: Are You Ready To Rapture?

Shernoff grew up in New York City, in the Queens neighborhood of Jackson
Heights. He attended elementary school with Johnny Thunders and Flushing
High School with the Fleshtones. After high school, he attended the SUNY
New Paltz Music Department. There he started the music magazine The
Teenage Wasteland Gazette, known for its sarcastic, wise-guy attitude. The
publication's contributors included famed rock critic Lester Bangs, who
invited Andy to write for Creem magazine. Shernoff's early profession of
choice was rock journalist.

Shernoff went on to become a musician, songwriter, record producer and
oenophile.  He  is a founding member of The Dictators, one of the seminal
New York proto-punk bands, for which he composed the lion’s share of the
material, played bass guitar, keyboards, sang back-up and occasional lead
vocals. He has been involved with a variety of other musical projects over
the years, most notably the heavily Dictators-populated Manitoba's Wild
Kingdom and Joey Ramone's sole solo studio album, Don't Worry About Me.

In the fall of 2009, he embarked upon a series of solo shows playing songs
he wrote or co-wrote and telling the stories behind them. In the spring of
2010, those shows would become "When Giants Walked the Earth - A Musical
Memoir by Adny Shernoff," with several tour dates scheduled in the Eastern
U.S. and Canada. Shernoff sang "California Sun" in the official Major
League Baseball promotional video for the 2010 All-Star Game. Other
projects include garage-rock band The Masterplan, featuring members of The
Fleshtones and the Waxing Poetics.

 His songs have been recorded by The Ramones, Mary Weiss (of the
Shangri-Las), Dion DiMucci, Carolyne Mas, Turbonegro, The Hellacopters,
Drivin 'N' Cryin, The Del-Lords, Toilet Böys, Young Fresh Fellows, The
A-Bones, The Nomads, The Untamed Youth, The Fastbacks, The Vikings, The
Streetwalkin Cheetahs, Texas Terri, Tom Clark, The Screaming Tribesman,
The Meatmen, Electric Frankenstein, The Prissteens, The Alter Boys, Metal
Mike Saunders (Angry Samoans), Furious George, Corpus Christi, Jeff Dahl
to name but a few.

 As producer he has worked with The Dictators, The Master Plan, Manitoba's
Wild Kingdom, The Barracudas, The Untamed Youth, D Generation, Adrenalin
OD, The Smithereens, Prisonshake, Guided by Voices, Sibling Rivalry with
Joey Ramone & Mickey Leigh, The Zantees with Billy Miller and Miriam
Linna, Sic F*cks with Tish and Snooky, The Kowalskis, The Figgs, and The
Golden Horde, among others.

 As both a journalist and a musician, Andy Shernoff is often credited as
"Adny Shernoff," a deliberate typo transposing the second and third
letters of his name. Shernoff has never explained the reasoning behind
this stylistic quirk.

Brian Eno "1971 - 1977 : The Man Who Fell To Earth" on DVD May 17


Brian Peter George St. John le Baptiste de la Salle Eno - Brian to his friends, Eno to the rest of us - defies categorisation. Musician, composer, record producer, music theorist, singer and visual artist covers some of what he does, but he's probably best known for his early work with Roxy Music, his production duties for U2 and Coldplay and as one of the principal innovators of ambient music. But however he's pigeon-holed, this remarkable, creative visionary remains amongst the most influential individuals to have ever worked within the music industry.

This documentary film - the first ever about Eno - explores his life, career and music between the years 1971 and 1977, the period that some view as his golden age, others as just one era in a long, extraordinary and very eclectic career.

Featuring numerous exclusive interviews, contributions from a range of musicians, writers [including his official biographer], colleagues, collaborators and friends - plus archive footage, performance and studio film and an abundance of arguably the most exceptional music ever created. 

Also contains many extra features including extended interviews, digital biographies and more.
