Amazon.co.uk Review
With Lou Reed settling into a comfortable, BBC-sponsored retirement, David Bowie lapsing into a deeper coma of pretentious irrelevance by the minute, and Mick Jagger dedicating his life to the sale of Rolling Stones merchandise, it's good to see that Iggy Pop--rock roll's original wild child--is still the consummate punk rocker. It's remarkable, also, though, that he's still alive--iNude and Rude.../i is surely testament to Iggy's iron constitution. A retrospective covering his career from The Stooges's eponymous 1969 debut through to 1990's iBrick By Brick/i, iNude and Rude.../i can crudely be split into three parts. The Stooges' grimy "I Wanna Be Your Dog" and "Search and Destroy" are magnificent howls of scuzz-rock, "Nightclubbing", "Lust For Life" and "The Passenger" are fruits of Iggy's dramatic rebirth in 1977, and, if the later work isn't as flattering to Iggy's legend, remember that it's still better than any of Reed, Bowie or Jagger's output at the turn of the century. i--Louis Pattison/i

This album has some superb rocking songs from someone who definitely deserves the term 'cult hero'. Probably best known nowadays for his collaborations with David Bowie, Iggy has amazed observers by surviving a performing career which looked certain to lead to an early demise (you think Ozzy Osbourne is/was a wild man?)pThe early Stooges material doesn't really do it for me, although it is generally regarded as hugely influential. For me it's the stuff from 'China Girl' (Iggy co-wrote it with Bowie, and I for one prefer his version) onwards which really works here: the run of songs from 'Kill City' through 'Home' just gets better and better. 'Real Wild Child' was originally, incredibly, recorded by Buddy Holly. 'Cold Metal' is my favourite, its relentless, immaculate guitar riff just embedding itself into your head. 'Candy', where B-52 Kate Pierson shares vocals with Iggy.... This stuff rocks!pIf only they'd been able to include his duet with Debbie Harry on 'Did You Evah?"...
