Iggy Pop's Nuggets first disc is good from track one to track twelve. The second disc, one the other hand, isn't as good. The first disc has Iggy singing Sly Stone's Family Affair, which he did pretty well. It also has some early Stooges stuff that is really insane. Rock Action and Modern Guy are some of Iggy's best songs. Disc one also has a really good version of Sixteen, which I think is also one of Iggy's best songs. Disc two has some good songs here and there, but what stood out the most was his vesion of the Batman Theme. Its silly, but still it's a good song. Nuggets wasn't worth the $ I paid for it, but if you're a hardcore Iggy fan, you're willing to pay anything for some really raw sounds.

Definately worth picking up by anyone, Stooge's fan or not, it's great. The sound quality is acceptable and with any good stereo system it can be enhanced past it's maximum. Great CD and collection, bar-none, that will make any REAL Stooges fan have a new set of favorites

Just wanted to add that the live version of "Eat Or Be Eaten" on this CD kicks! Not every song on this collection is good, but this CD is worth getting for the ones that are. Nice packaging too!

If you don't, and like me had to put on the single, buy this.But there is more here.There is some great live stuff here. From "No Fun" (a medly with the superior "Waitin' For My Man") to "You Really Got Me" to "Batman" (of all things), Iggy is in fine form. And the production is generally very good.

Iggy is a great artist.But the sound quality on these two cds is awful.You shouldn't buy Nugggets, unless you want to waste your money, as I did.
