What's You Gonna Do?

I was told by someone (I can't remember if it was here or somewhere else) that "What'ts You Gonna Do?" which is supposedly from 1968 doesn't actually have Iggy singing but an impersonator. Can anyone here shed any light on this?

yeh as far as i can remember its a guy called steven richards, iggy didnt show and he got up on stage i think, something like that i thnk

And it's from the summer of 1971 (not 1968) just after Iggy quit the band.
Cheers,

Thanks for that. I never did think it was from 1968 though I never realised it wasn't Iggy till now.

Thanks.

So if I understand well it's not Iggy singing, but it's with the other Stooges playing ?

Yup. James didn't turn up too for that show, so it was Ron, Jimmy Recca and Scott - Richards jumped out of the audience to sing.

I was given the info on this by Michael Tipton, who taped the show.

Many thanks, i've just received your book from amazon.co.uk (send from germany )

It looks like great and complete, the definitive bio, too bad you just gave a single star for Soldier, one of my favorite solo Iggy LP

only 1 star !!!!!

Oh!?

Too bad I sold my ep-box where I had that song. But man, I was so fed up with the Stooges then and I needed that cash so bad...
