It must be frankly said that this is not the Ig's finest hour as a vocalist - not awful, just not up to his usual standards - but the band cooks along nicely behind him. The Happy Mondays-ish beat works quite well....

The back up band is actually Medeski, Martin, and Wood.  I actually liked the album quite a bit, but it's probably not for people who aren't true Iggy fans.  Very different.

Medeski, Martin & Wood backing the Ig? That alone is worthy of a post, cover or no cover....

Good idea, I should do one tonight.  I'll have to give the album a spin again to refresh my memory.
