Acoustic Kill City demo

Here's "Sense Of Crime" done backstage in Melbourne

WOW what a pleasant surprise for my saturday morning

thanks so much for posting, Rod.
Any idea of the source? Ask for more?

That was great!
Iggy's voice is excellent and James gets a lovely sound out of that guitar.
Pity about the short break in the middle.
And I'll echo zickafuce - is there more where that came from? Hope so.
Cheers,
Richard

James posted it on his Facebook page with this comment

"Alright, could have made some tighter edits, could of done more takes and used more camera angles...but this one is more interesting without all that...what ya see is what ya get...."

On youtube it mentions being a Kill City demo, maybe there is more

That's beautiful, thanks for posting.

I'm very fond of the heart and soul Iggy puts in there, esp at the end when he looks so unsure. Lovely. Maybe James is a big effect on him and the two can still do important things together...??? ? These are strange times.

I find it astonishing that James Williamson is on that 'Facebook' thing. So much that always was so remote and mysterious and therefore magical is now right here on everyone's doorsstep. It's wonderful, but a little shocking.

Love the video though. I have high hopes for some new music of great worth from those two guys. Kill City is beautiful, and evocative of its time and in its time. Sung in 2011 it is eerie - evoking ghosts of the past. This is the music that those guys should make. An epitaph for an era. No more head banging, we need expressionism and we need a lot of fucking inspiration, imho.

Thanks for sharing the clip. Awesome really.

I think Facebook let him re-emerge on his terms, sort of test the waters. It totally freaked me right out the first time he commented on one of my FB posts.

I can imagine!

The world has become so small. Someways that's a great thing, but in someways it seems disappointing. Communication is everything, but I don't like losing the sense of the distance between things. It's a double-edged sword that's for sure.

Going from the least accessible and mysterious Stooge, to the most accessible is truly amazing.

I know, I had his e- mail address early on and he replied every time I Wrote.

Iggy is still in fine voice. Great to see (n hear)

I'm lovin his T-shirt!
I want one. Anyone seen these?
I've been scourin' the web.
Looks like a '71 lineup with Recca missing if my old eyes don't deceive me.

the shirt iggy is wearing is made by trunk ltd. they're limited t-shirts that can be pretty pricey (around $60 - 75 USD). this one seems like it is out of print, but here is the custom-made shirt that "influenced" the trunk ltd shirt.
