Iggy Pop was punk before punk even existed. Channeling rock & roll and Chicago blues influences with his band The Stooges in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Red Bull Music Academy was honored in September 2016 to welcome Iggy Pop at Montréal’s Monument-National: Ludger-Duvernay Theatre, Canada’s oldest theater, for a lengthy conversation about his colossal career with noted Canadian music journalist Carl Wilson.

The Michigan native created some of the most potent rock music the world had ever heard, influencing virtually every generation of punk, garage rock and grunge artists that was to come. Pop’s high-wire collaborations with David Bowie in the latter half of the ’70s are the stuff of legend and spawned some of both artists’ most enduring hits. In 2016, he affirmed his position in the pantheon of rock music with his celebrated Post Pop Depression LP.

Iggy Pop's life story is the definition of "Too weird to live, too rare to die"
too Old to die Young punx not Dad grüße aus Hamburg
@@tonistonecoldblack6746 a legend of the 70s and onward.
Hunter s thompson ;)
@@syriusgreen6335?
A true intellectual.... I firstly liked his music, later I was fascinated by his performance,but now I am in love with his character...I admire him
Bowie introduce me to iggy and now I love both
Very intelligent always has been
totally, he's hell of a human. saw him live in Prague couple years ago and it was the best show ever.
@@jessica5497 funny, when I was young Iggy introduced me to Bowie lol
He’s a King of Clubs ♣️🔥and it shows
I lived in Ann Arbor in the late 60s. Seeing the Stooges was like going to psychedelic church. Iggy was the high priest and he and all the parishioners were on LSD. We were all anxious to see what Iggy was going to improvise, because no two shows were the same. It wasn't just music; it was performance art. The band was mesmerizing.
But where did they play in Ann Arbor?
I've always been curious, I don't know
If the Blind Pig or Second Chance were bars at that time. I was too young for bars then so I missed that scene.
Iggy is such a legend! I'm glad people have finally realized what a legend he is before he's gone!
He'll never go away
I remember when Rolling Stone considered it newsworthy that Iggy Pop reached 30.he was dangerous to himself on and off stage. now ,he may reach 100.
I sure hope he does.
this is why Iggy is so great!! he was technically in one of the first industrial bands and he didn't even know it nor did he care because art is art!
I saw Iggy Pop in 1973!!!! He was with James Williamson, Scotty Thurston on piano, Ron Asheton on bass & his brother Rock on drums. Iggy hung from the rafters by his legs! I saw him in other concerts but that was the best. We're both still alive!!! That's amazing.
Iggy is still so hype...that entrance....hell yes...that made my day
Watching him take those audience questions with such warmth, humility, and a previous user said, "guilelessness", is so moving. What an incredible man.
Saw Iggy at Max's Kansas City in NY in the summer of 1973....a high energy show. He's come a long way since then.
He's one of the last, realest of the reals. 100% authentic. Viscera, raw emotion, sweat, power, beauty... Lost stock.
Just look at how this guy weighs amongst spoiled, reserved, wealthy and easily bored millenials with his mere presence.
And that suit. Damn... Man crushing hard.
I am just learning about him and can see why my sister loved him. He is a snappy dresser.
Sometimes when I think of some people of some people that age, it seems like a sign that I have turned into an old codger. "Kids today."
I'm the chairman of the bored. IPO next week!
I'm sick of all my kicks. Sick of all the dips. I'm bored.
You're the chairman of the bored.
Never a dull moment with this legend.
Iggy was one of the pioneers of industrial music. From " I want to be your dog" and "TV Eye" with The Stooges through "Funtime", "Baby", "Mass Production", "Bang Bang", "Dog Food", "Bulldozer", "Run Like a Villain", and others from his solo albums, Iggy definitely helped lay the foundation for industrial and other forms of rhythmically aggressive, abstract music.
"I like all forms of music..
well I'm not a big polka guy"
I love IGGY always just listening to him talk makes me feel better
What a great human being, congrats Iggy on making it through the drug years, your reward was Post Pop Depression which I for one thank you for....just a great piece of musical work.
5 years later and we are still talking about Post Pop Depression. Great work. Just bought a replacement copy!
between two ferns with Iggy Pop
His comments about Dave were amazing to listen to. I mean that bass in Dirt was legendary I wish we could learn more about the forgotten Stooge.
One of the last Rockstars standing! Unbelievable, how he managed to survive the most dangerous times of Rock&Roll ... and man it looks fucking great, I wish I could reach this age, and look so good. Did what he wanted, live as he wanted ... from me, only respect! A legend
17:00 "I think all human beings are subject to the other human beings around you.
There’s almost a terrorism of environment that is usually unspoken in everybody’s life.
But there’s a group of people for everyone about whom part of your consciousness is thinking, “What will they think? What will the do? What can I do?”. So there is all that.
You can flow with it. Or go against it."
Amazing! I love him more!
Iggy looks amazing

Hey Dude..thatd b a hoot..id guess..if it were another time n place..butt'own-chk out his bootlegs(@'insert @'The John Peel lec'ture..sm fairlly well known faces in that crowd..all throwing various muse's..great that hes willing to give bk..et al.
JamKaret : 😂🤓🤓🤓🤓
I ❤️ Iggy!.Saw him when I was 18 and a punk. 57 now, he's still 😎. Named a little Boston Terrier after him!
I feel bad for both your dog and Iggy
1:11:22: That long silence after the question "Do you believe in true love?" and his ambigous response... So moving!
Bands Iggy is listening to at the moment (at 1:14:27):
Sleaford Mods
Girlpool
U.S. Girls
Derek Miller
Gold Panda
Perfume Genius
Thanks sir for writing it down..
I was coming back one by one lol. Cheers
Me to. Thanks!!!
Iggy is an excellent communicator!!!
The most prolific songwriter, a real performing artist who looks better and better. Underrated.
"He could have been a Kennedy and something went wrong" - what a great line!!
When the interviewer started with that question about his name i thought "oh boy, this is gonna suck" but he ended up asking really cool questions. Iggy is such a beautiful person, i'm so happy that i was able to catch him on his last tour.
Can’t believe the number of questions about Josh Homme...? When Ig is so sophisticated and funny and he has so much more to talk about. He’s an intellectual and yet basic at the same time. I had the honor of being in his presence for almost 24 hours and he forgot his favorite glasses (the grey ones he bought in Berlin) at my studio apartment in NYC around ‘82. So JIM if you see this I still have them! When we talk at the night club - wait until the crowd goes 😉
Not very hard to google his address and mail them to him.
W0W!!! Great Question--At 1:22:06 Never Ever heard Iggy talk about Zander!!! The gig Iggy fired Dave Alexander at, was the Goose Lake Festival. I went, and it was totally weird seeing the sTo0gES playing without a Bass player!
Iggy is such a cool guy. Loved the part where he spoke of Dave Alexander
I grew up and currently live about 10 miles east of Ypsilanti. When i was in my teens in the 80's, i discovered Iggy. I was absolutely psyched when learned he and the Ashton Brothers were from an area so close to me geographically, that I wore that with pride. To this day, when venture into the Ypsi/Ann Arbor area, I think about the importance of that generation and the contributions they made. Iggy, MC5, John Sinclair, their history is undeniable.
Iggy is the godfather of punk such a great personality and an explosive performer great singer/songwriter awesome band as well, they got the chemistry to make phenomenal albums
it is too bad we get old but age is really nothing we are not young and fresh anymore, but Iggy could do another great album, you never know! ROCK & ROLL is ETERNAL it can never die.
1:15:20 “i like perfume genius very much” ugh that moved me to tears as a massive pg fan, nothing can compare to hearing iggy pop praise your fave
yep. thats the guy I met in 91. as stoked to meet the fans as we were to see him.
Surprised at how articulate and intelligent he seems to be after all those years of craziness and heavy drug use. Would be fun to hang with him a bit.
Drugs don't sap ur intelligence or necessarily make u less articulate. Sometimes it increases both.
@@BH-cr5uoDepends on the drug, the amount of use and the user tbh
I'm from Detroit (blow the reveille)!
The fan at 1:09:39:
_"....Mr. Oswalt?"_
_"Jim Osterwalt?"_
(LoL~°)
I actually felt bad for her.
Iggy handled it like a real pro!
He tried to keep her engaged/Did NOT ridicule!
How many Rock Stars would do that?
How many Rock Stars would even know HOW to do that?
*The Pathos/Danger/Humanity/The Artistry!*
*THE MAN!*
Dave B.
holy shit, and a dude shows up who was present as Bowie was recording Low, god damn
mastersoftoday
My thoughts exactly MOT....
I could listen to Iggy talk all day...💙
Cry For Love , Isolation , Fire Girl , Hideaway those are great songs from Iggy's most Pop segment in his career and Bowie's best collaboration for a good few years in his mid eighties era ... Amazing really , Iggy Pop has a lot of Great Songs ... Eat Or Be Eaten , Tuff Baby , Little Know It All , Private Hell , I Wanna Live , Down On The Street , Sister Midnight , Mask , Starry Night , Joanna so many great songs !! Truly Amazing
"a gay hobo named Harry Partch" lol
He was a gay hobo. A gay transient at least.
Saw him today here in miami driving his convertible Rolls with no shirt and he looked majestic as fuck
So likeable. I love Iggy. The stories acknowledging the people who influenced musical sounds like the Aston Brothers was gorgeous. The 'whistling wind' from the vac, the innovative Harry Parch with the cloud chamber water levels in the bowls was so interesting. Full force funny at times in this interview. Thanks for the share xx
I go by his small trailer park and always give him a greeting. He's a good man, creative, smart, and a hell of an entertainer!
I used to be a bass player and the rhythm section on lust for life is so good, and it was so masterfully produced. Loved it!
They were brothers, Hunt & Tony Sales.
love Iggy! I saw him in concert years ago & he was amazing. Way ahead of his time! ♡
He doesn't look bad for 70
His face looks old but his physical conditions are so impressive, like he is under 40 but not over 70. Impressive dude
@@dmitriymode1156 …...have you even seen a recent concert, he's a bust 70 and I LOVE Iggy. His hips are done and he can barely walk straight.
Johnnywhamo I watched only some single performances recently like “love missing” live. Well, of course, he cannot be so energetic for the whole concert like he used, though he still can be energetic impressively during short performances
@@dmitriymode1156….indeed, he can still give fantastic performance and you're right he's still very energetic for a 72 year old no doubt. I was just kind of pointing out he wasn't moving like a 40 year old and his body is pretty darnn crooked and beat upon..BUT…. I do agree with you in that his performances in spite of the fact he's in his 70's are very energetic indeed :)
Who cares how old he is
He's a friggin LEGEND
Really nice thoughtful unpretentious guy. Looks great too. Lust for Life is one of my favorite songs of all time.
Iggy Pop Is simply amazing. Simply a beautiful soul. A mesmerizing Man 😍
Hes a fascinating guy who lived a life worth living...he must have felt it all.
This video is a gem. Iggy Pop is such a genuine character. Respect!
Iggy is a ROCK GOD!! from my home town of Detroit. R.I.P Asheton Brothers. The Detroit world is less without you guys.
Both Gone? Whoa, i kinda wish i didn't know that now. Dave looked younger than Iggy...heavier, but younger.
and dave alexander
What a wonderful, down-to-earth, honest interview. Thank you so much for bringing this to us and thank you so much to Jim/Iggy for opening up to us in this way. We're blessed he is in our lives.
Iggy "stage perona" and Iggy as ordinary human being are transferred into his music.
Some serious talk from music "misfit" about life.
Honest reflections about his personal choices.
Funny and sad.
Sometimes all at the same time .
Iggy is lucky his choices didn't kill him prematurely.
Many people didn't make through those kind of experiences.
Questions and answers so real,no editing or scripted.
Made me feel slightly nostalgic,i must be getting older...
iggy pop rocks forever. thanks for being so candid and beautiful! i have always loved you! from the first moments i heard 'search and destroy' and 'tv eye' as a kid... and i still love you. but i feel like the audience and the music critic missed most of what you said. i got it all, and was laughing! they were like, whatever....
Cool interview. It's nice the way you just put yourself out there and don't try to sell yourself as anything other than what or who rather who you are. It's interesting that most of the people I was really friends with are like you in the way that when we talk about process of creating or even recreating it's very detailed and persise and very detailed. And the one thing I that I think is lacking in a way in the world. It's like when you speak you don't manipulate things for fear of later loosing out on some penny lost by giving away the secret. Calculating every word with the Money filter. People like that you cant escape Because they made a shit ton of money and 60% of the world holds that to be the greatest thing. I click by these folks I mean I want to know the people not the shit they will do for money. I had parents myself who grew up in the Depression. I get it but that's a parents job to teach you how to provide but i don't seek it out. Like Elon, He's actually a kind of cool guy Most Billion Dollar Babies only Love Money. Anyway, lol I think I bought Fun House on the Recomendation of Henry Rollins. Not that i known him... lol. You know that picture of you with that smile is so excellently fitting for your earlier music. Maybe it's me.
Try Lenny Gomulka and the Chicago Push. Chicago style polka is mighty fun, good time, music.
holy fuck that entrANCE
I was in that room and instantly had chills when he came on stage, everyone stood up in a second without even watching each other. Magic moment.
He seems so loose and uninhibited.
Like a Wild Animal that likes you for now. :)
I don't think he appreciated the introduction. I thought he was going to thump the guy for mentioning his age
What a legend, post pop depression was and is an awesome album. Iggy is a great agent provocateur with his music.
The guy who walked up to the mic and said "wow you're Iggy Pop"
I felt that so hard. Lol
information asymmetry: everyone should live like Iggy. but, Iggy doesn't have specific strong roll model. he living as himself, he knows intuitive approach(shake up your unconsciousness) is scientifically best methodology we know of. best attitude for create something, math research, invention.
Wise words, my Friend.
i was only in a mildly successful band, and myself, and our other writer would either listen only to classical, jazz, or nothing at all. We didn't want to sound just like the bands we liked, in other words. Influence is great, but the best work i ever did just came exploding out, nearly whole. Of course it would get polished by the guys, but i think internalizing what you have observed in life can issue forth very honest work.
Iggy is as genuine and honest as it gets. People like he, Tom Waits, and the Late Leonard Cohen care nothing for how they are perceived by the masses. i admire that greatly.
Kilgore Trout what band
The Band i was in the longest was the least successful, and you wouldn't know that one. in 89, i was in Sin City Disciples for about 4 months....on the Eve of signing the Mythical "Big Record Deal" 2 of the founding members got into a huge fight, by morning there was no band to sign the "Big Contract". The Disciples Bassist joined me in my longtime band in 98, and we finally gave it up in 2003, i took a job on the east coast. About 5 months later, i learned the bassist had died. That band was actually quite good, and toured extensively, opening for major bands.
Short story...i am no one famous. If that fight hadn't happened, who knows.
Kilgore Trout I'll look them up I'm into real underground shit
If you can find live performances, SCD was a really, really good band. i was happy to be in, but had no clue when i joined that it would implode shortly thereafter. i've never found a live show with me, but perhaps some more have been uploaded since i last looked. If u find a show with a percussionist/backing vocal, that would be me.
He's just wonderful---a true 'eclectisaurus'
This is just so good. Thanks for the the upload!
Excellent interview. Inspiring. Great guestions.
Iggy - Top man. Very honest and humble man, I discovered Iggy through David Bowie. Raw Power was the first album . I didn't really get it when I was young. I didn't understand why it was lower in volume that other recordings of the time. It needed to be turned up. Then there was Berlin period with Bowie. the Idiot remains my favourite , although lust for life , amazing. David started to take Iggy down the 80's route which even for David became bland. I think Iggy became a little 'lost' in Bowie which happened to many artists. I'd have loved to see Mick Ronson and Iggy do an album.
Pop Pop Depression is rather good. He plays it down, but I feel its great. Its also worth visiting Williamson's re licked. That sounds like the Raw Power album should have.
I wish this had subtitles for the hard of hearing. Love Iggy.
Great interview, thanx for posting!
Extremely calm and honest. Cool Cat.
I was just going to get this on history and watch it later , she said 57 minutes later . Thx to the whole experience . Never have ever have hearing a iggy song ever .
Hello thanks for sharing. Big Iggy fan ^ was just listening to "fun house" last night ♥️XXO
I loved this.. it was awesome what he atlked about. great topics..
One of the most intelligent guys in rock.
Warning: Turn off the video when the moronic audience starts asking their pointless questions.
"Hello Mr. Oswald" ugh so ridiculous when that woman said that.
total cringe.
I love it! I hate when people refer to artists by their real name (eg--someone refers to Joey Ramone as "Jeff". Puh-leeelz!) like it makes them "inside, hip, superfan". It doesn't; it makes you a tool. And here it backfires.
Iggy you are so right on!
this is great. Thank you for sharing.
I don’t understand any of the questions this guy asked iggy. It was really nice of iggy to indulge this guy, wish I had the opportunity to sit with him for this amount of time and ask anything I wanted.
Wow, Iggy's take is really refreshing to this 34 year old.
__ Mid-life crisis, averted :)
Haha, tho youre too young for a mid-life crisis! Pop, dont be a Depp ;)
thanks for this
One of a kind
Iggy Pop has a role in a film called 'Dead Man' that is hilarious. Great film. Directed by Jim Jarmusch. Starring Johnny Depp. Soundtrack by Neil Young
@1:01:11 I'm not the King Cheese, so sayith the king! Totally humble dude. Done well for himself and others. Love that.
I agree with Iggy! If you you love something that's what you gotta do!
sleaford mods are awsome .. ty Iggy and ty Jesse(a) for the question :D
Outstanding interview really cool
Such a cool dude
Iggy is just too cool for school......what a life he carries around in his head...
Great interview!
I love this man 🌹
I was there. Afer all that years. Listened again with plasure
an Inspiration and a great teacher! Wow!
Hes 70 n still so AWESOME
Mr Oswald appears in my feed and I click. It's really THAT simple...
I saw him a few yrs ago and I went outside and IGGY was running around his tour bus to get pumped up for the show It doesn't matter how old you are it's merely a
stupid number
Insightfully grounded and earnest
. . . and oh so Iggy : - )
...and BINGO! was his name-o. Spot-on!
Yes.....
fascinating
Iggys generation as well as mine had been born when art was flourished people had been experiencing with so much as I say spiritual, voodoo, we had made a great edition to the music as well as art world there will never be such greatness again ...
absolute legend.
Huge respect for Iggy.
He's the top five of my favorite performers.
who are the other 4?
@@pepesu2123 . Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie and Syd Barrett. What they all have in common is their music. Syd Barrett was in Pink Floyd and watch the 9 minute interview with Roger Waters in black and white. The live song is Astronomy Domine. Whoever were the camera men that shot that, knew what they were doing. Instead of a light show, the main use were the shadows on the walls that gave it a freaky feel to it. All the while the interviewer belittled the two muscians (the host was a classically trained violinist, "why does the music has too be so loud?"). When I was a kid, I did like Elvis and Michael (Jackson). But the main thing is the music then how it is executed.
@@marksoquetjr4693 I see we have plenty of favorite musicians in common .....apart of Michale Jackson....I mean I like his Mowtown stuff but I am not to keen on his solo stuff..
