Description

Iggy Pop: Open Up and Bleed"Fellow rock stars, casual members of the public, lords and media magnates, countless thousands of people will talk of their encounters with this driven, talented, indomitable creature, a man who has plumbed the depths of depravity, yet emerged with an indisputable nobility. Each of them will share an admiration and appreciation of the contradictions and ironies of his incredible life. Even so, they are unlikely to fully comprehend both the heights

"Fellow rock stars, casual members of the public, lords and media magnates, countless thousands of people will talk of their encounters with this driven, talented, indomitable creature, a man who has plumbed the depths of depravity, yet emerged with an indisputable nobility. Each of them will share an admiration and appreciation of the contradictions and ironies of his incredible life. Even so, they are unlikely to fully comprehend both the heights and the depths of his experience, for the extremes are simply beyond the realms of most people's understanding."

--from the Prologue

The first full biography of one of rock 'n' roll's greatest pioneers and legendary wild men

Born James Newell Osterberg Jr., Iggy Pop transcended life in Ypsilanti, Michigan, to become a member of the punk band the Stooges, thereby earning the nickname "the Godfather of Punk." He is one of the most riveting and reckless performers in music history, with a commitment to his art that is perilously total. But his personal life was often a shambles, as he struggled with drug addiction, mental illness, and the ever-problematic question of commercial success in the music world. That he is even alive today, let alone performing with undiminished energy, is a wonder. The musical genres of punk, glam, and New Wave were all anticipated and profoundly influenced by his work.

Paul Trynka, former editor of Mojo magazine, has spent much time with Iggy's childhood friends, lovers, and fellow musicians, gaining a profound understanding of the particular artistic culture of Ann Arbor, where Iggy and the Stooges were formed in the mid to late sixties. Trynka has conducted over 250 interviews, has traveled to Michigan, New York, California, London, and Berlin, and, in the course of the last decade or so at Mojo, has spoken to dozens of musicians who count Iggy as an influence. This has allowed him to depict, via real-life stories from members of bands like New Order and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Iggy's huge influence on the music scene of the '70s, '80s, and '90s, as well as to portray in unprecedented detail Iggy's relationship with his enigmatic friend and mentor David Bowie. Trynka has also interviewed Iggy Pop himself at his home in Miami for this book. What emerges is a fascinating psychological study of a Jekyll/Hyde personality: the quietly charismatic, thoughtful, well-read Jim Osterberg hitched to the banshee creation and alter ego that is Iggy Pop.

Iggy Pop: Open Up and Bleed is a truly definitive work--not just about Iggy Pop's life and music but also about the death of the hippie dream, the influence of drugs on human creativity, the nature of comradeship, and the depredations of fame.

Rugged Timberland Quality—The Best Bifold for "Double ID" Needs
Color: Black (Sportz)
Design & Capacity: I’ve been using this wallet for two weeks, and it’s a powerhouse for organization. The attached flip pocket is a game-changer for me because I have to carry both a driver's license and a work security badge. The two ID windows let me show both without digging through card slots. Genuine Leather: Looks and smells premium; will likely weather nicely with age. The Slimness Factor: Timberland calls this a "slimfold," and while it is thinner than a traditional trifold, the flip-out pocket does add some depth. With 6 cards and 5 bills, it measures about 0.75 inches thick. It fits comfortably in my back pocket, but it might be a bit much for a front-pocket-only user.

Wanting a standard nice wallet. Get this
Color: Black, Color: Black
Your standard wallet. Nothing to complain about. Does what it’s supposed to and I have no complaints. The fit is amazing. Holds at least 17 20 dollar bills and over. Durability is also amazing to say the least. Doesn’t rip at all, with a lot of money in it. Its thickness ties in with how much money you can fit in it, so I won’t go into that category. Overall what you see is what you get. A standard, nice, durable wallet that sticks into your pants.

Great value for the style and material
Color: Brown
Purchased as a replacement for my son's previous wallet. He found this same wallet on Timberland's website at a much higher price. He received it and has used it ever since it was delivered. He was very pleased and still is with how soft the wallet is. He likes the style a lot as well.
