Iggy Pop And James Williamson To Reissue 'Kill City' Album

September 13, 2010
Iggy Pop And James Williamson To Reissue 'Kill City' AlbumIggy Pop and James Williamson are to reissue their classic album, ‘Kill City’.

The 11-track record, originally released in 1977, is due out on December 6 on CD and Vinyl.

The album, which helped bridge Pop’s career between The Stooges and his solo albums, has been remastered by the pair.

The singer said: "A lot of people have borrowed its ideas; it's one of the very first independent LP's I know of."

Williamson added: "With this re-release we are not only re-united in our musical endeavors but in our appreciation of this album, its re-mix and its importance to us as artists."

The CD reissue of ‘Kill City’ will be accompanied by a 24-page booklet, while the LP is on clear green vinyl.

The tracklisting is:

  1. Kill City
  2. Sell Your Love
  3. Beyond the Law
  4. I Got Nothin'
  5. Johanna
  6. Night Theme
  7. Night Theme (Reprise)
  8. Consolation Prizes
  9. No Sense of Crime
  10. Lucky Monkeys
  11. Master Charge
