just saw this and naturally assumed it would be a fake as there was no name

still think it is but they get the tone of the guitars down and even the mixing of the instruments

the song itself is a bit generic i guess compared to some of the stuff they were doing which is the only thing that makes me think its fake

i've never heard this before if its real, and you'd think it would have been on the boxset if it is

any thoughts?

It's on this album:

It's real, I've always thought that that bootleg was an Iggy's secret idea. It was released by Boca del Rey, an unknown record company that only released this album probably, and it's based on Miami (where Iggy lives).

On the album there's the complete "Nigger Man" song with lyrics, this is probably because they didn't want it on the last Raw Power release and they put an edited version called "Doojiman", so I think Iggy wanted these tracks to be released anyway in an obscure album.

Etiqueta Negra de Lugo is real worth listening, great tracks and outtakes.

I'll have to check that bootleg. The guitar sounds a lot like Williamson, but overall the song is kinda tame, at least compared to what they sounded like at the time.

Its probably just tame because they are just jamming on an idea. The record is great though. The sound quality was a surprise. Get it!

Anyone know if "I Got A Right" and "Gimmie Some Skin" were meant to be on Raw Power or were they just outtakes?

They were recorded a month or two before the Raw Power sessions along with "I'm Sick Of You" and "Scene of the Crime" but were rejected by Tony Defries as being too violent. So the band had a rethink and came up with the Raw Power songs which aren't, to my mind, any less violent...

Thanks man. I agree. They don't sound any less violent to me either. All four of those songs almost sound as if they belong on Raw Power.
