🎼21 April 1947. Happy Birthday 🥳🍾 to Iggy Pop, born James Newell Osterberg Jr. in Muskegon, Michigan, USA.
A living legend and a true music and image icon who crossed the decades until today, remaining almost unchanged!
With his Stooges he played punk in the late 60s, 10 years before punk was around, he was one of the first to perform stage diving and to appear bare chest, in the 70s he moved to Berlin with long time friend #DavidBowie, marking an era with that fantastic musical liason. In the 80s and 90s Iggy became unanimously considered and praised as the Godfather of Punk. 🤟
In the Chat Room one of my Iggy and the #Stooges favorites👇, as always you can post yours 😃

📀 Some Girls Wander by Mistake
#GothicRock #DarkWave

30 years ago The Sisters of Mercy from Leeds #UK, released a compilation album of their previously unedited studio recording from 1980 to 1983.
The album is entitled Some Girls Wander by Mistake, a phrase taken from #LeonardCohen song "Teachers" which Sisters of Mercy often covered live (the band's name is in fact taken from Cohen's work).
This compilation contains all #SistersofMercy early singles and EPs, plus 2 amazing cover songs: #Stooges "1969" and #RollingStones "Gimme Shelter".

The Sisters of Mercy in this album were:
#AndrewEldritch – vocals
#CraigAdams – bass guitar
Ben Gunn – guitar
Gary Marx – guitar
Doktor Avalanche (drum machine's name) – drums
