"Ed's photos take us behind the scenes and in the middle of the
action. I always felt like I was being transported to the location
of the shot, and was experiencing it all first hand. The Stooges
Funhouse sessions are my favorite rock photos of all time. I wanted
to be those guys. Those images have stayed with me my entire life
and continue to inspire me to this day !!!!!" - John Varvatos In
May 1970, The Stooges were in the middle of recording their
celebrated album, Fun House at Elektra Records Recording Studio in
Los Angeles. That same month, they appeared at the Whisky a Go-Go
on Sunset Boulevard for two incredible nights. Ed Caraeff, a new
rock photographer who had burst onto the scene three years prior
with his now-iconic image of Jimi Hendrix burning his guitar
onstage at Monterey, happened to be in that crowd, and took a
plethora of wonderful pictures. Only a few stills from that
phenomenal gig were ever reproduced. Most famously, one was used on
the cover of Fun House. The rest were filed away. Until now. Ed
Caraeff's coverage of this monumental moment is reprinted here for
the first time in book form. He not only captures the energy,
madness and raw power of Iggy Pop's performance, but also the
preceding minutes before the band stepped onto stage and made
history. Along with images and contact sheets, original interviews
shed new light on that unforgettable night. Interviewed by
pop-culture historian Jennifer Otter Bickerdike, names include Jac
Holzman, Head of Elektra Records during the recording of Fun House;
Mikael Maglieri, son of Mario Maglieri, owner of the Whisky a Go-Go
when The Stooges played in 1970; Danny Fields, a DJ/publicist
credited for signing MC5 and The Stooges; and Jeff Gold, music
historian and noted Iggy Pop biographer. A tribute to the band that
rocked the world, Iggy & The Stooges: One Night at the Whisky,
1970 will revolutionise your view of music.
