notes-
This is a Iggy Pop & the Stooges cover that can be found on the
CD "We Will Fall - The Iggy Pop Tribute" From my experience,
it is relatively hard to come across. Therefore, I will
go into more detail analyzing it. I still recommend finding
the CD or at least the Stooges version to get the timing.
Also, in the liner notes,
vocals are credited to Tom, and bass and backing vocals are
credited to John. (I've never heard Tom sing, but you can tell
it's not John.) Brandon's on guitar and Don's on drums.
I tabbed the bass because the guitar alone doesn't sound correct,
but i'm pretty sure it is. also after searching through
superdrag, iggy pop, and stooges pages, i still have no idea
on the lyrics... but i'll try...
It begins with a few seconds of random feedback...
the guitar riff is played alone a couple of times,
then enter bass and drums.
