Iggy Pop | Sixteen | Live Danish TV Performance | 19 September 1977

Here is my attempt to restore this recording of a live TV performance of Iggy Pop and his September – November ’77 touring band. The boys smash out a fierce version of Sixteen, a track from the then-just released new album, Lust For Life. The quality is far from perfect, but I believe it is the best we have in circulation. • The Lust for Life album was released on the 9th of September 1977. The two month long tour to promote it started in Berlin on September the 12th. It continued through Germany, Holland, Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, England, France, Canada and the U.S. The tour finished up on the 18th of November, at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. • Footage of Iggy playing live in the 70’s is such a rare thing, we have to make the most of the few scraps that we have. And so here’s my fix-up of this classic – albeit rough - slice of prime Iggy excitement. Thanks for watching, hope you dig it! • Credits Video and Audio: Iggy Pop performing Si
