Listal's A to Z library of favourite bands (241 person items)"Nominated by Happy Vader
Long before wildmen like Ozzy & Alice Cooper, there was Iggy & The Stooges. The original 'raw' band and probably the originator of punk-rock/proto-punk that would later give way to songs like Paranoid and bands like The Clash.

Iggy wanted the Stooges to be what he'd seen in Chicago as a young guy -- these old bluesmen playing so hard that, as Iggy once said, the music drips off you."
