Synopsis
Iggy Pop's life has been one of extraordinary highs and terrifying lows. Infamous for his wild ways, he is also a towering figure of the rock scene - hugely influential, charismatic and provocative. His seminal album LUST FOR LIFE, produced by David Bowie, is as popular today as it ever was, and its title track became the signature tune of the movie TRAINSPOTTING. At the age of 60, and unlike many of his peers, Iggy is as relevant and iconic as ever. But Iggy Pop is, to a large extent, a construct, the alter ego of the quietly spoken and intriguing Jim Osterberg. What turned the straight-A student into a tearaway, a rock god, a junkie, and a poster child for rock-and-roll debauchery? Astonishingly, Iggy Pop has never had the serious biography his life and work deserves. Paul Trynka - ex-editor of Mojo - is perfectly placed to write the definitive Iggy biography. He has interviewed Iggy on several occasions, and has also done impeccable research on Iggy's life, tracking down friends, family, lovers and fellow musicians. The result is an honest and indepth portrait of a true rock-and-roll legend.
