IGGY and the STOOGES
‘METALLIC K.O.’

The Original 1976 Album
- the notorious ‘Last Ever Iggy & the Stooges Show’!
LIMITED 40th ANNIVERSARY ISSUE IN GOLD VINYL!
Includes inner bag with background notes and gold poster!

New and sealed; direct from the label.

‘METALLIC K.O.’ is the remarkable album of Iggy & The Stooges confrontational ‘last ever gig’ (until their reunion almost 30 years later).  Effectively the fourth Stooges album with then brand new and unheard songs, it was released in 1976 three years after ‘Raw Power’ while Iggy was in limbo.  Soon after the gig Iggy checked into a mental hospital.   

The sound of kamikaze Iggy Pop provocatively abusing his audience and then dodging eggs and bottles thrown by a biker gang enhanced Iggy’s reputation in the embryonic punk scene as the Punk Godfather.  Nothing like it had been heard before.  It became a must-have album and far out-sold the first three Stooges albums, with sales of over 100,000.

It is now re-issued on vinyl with the original LP track list - previously it had been extended to a double-CD with the complete 1973 & 1974 shows it is taken from.  In the 2007 CD re-mastering, an original tape-speed error was discovered and corrected – so now for the first time on vinyl the album can be heard at the correct pitch.

The album contains Iggy Pop’s story of the events surrounding the gigs as well as contemporaneous reports from Nick Kent, Giovanni Dadomo and Lester Bangs.  An essential album in Iggy’s history.

Nick Kent said: ‘I’m convinced that side two is a masterpiece’ and Lester Bangs said: ‘It’s the only rock album I know where you can actually hear hurled beer bottles breaking against guitar strings’.

PLEASE READ THE SMALL PRINT BEFORE YOU BUY:

PAYMENT
Paypal is smoothly integrated into ebay, and works well. 
Paying by credit-card - if you don't have Paypal, you can still use credit-cards through PayPal. 
Just DON’T LOG INTO AN ACCOUNT, and look for the button saying ‘Pay by credit-card’. 
We also accept cheques from UK banks in Pounds Sterling, and UK Postal Orders. Checks in US Dollars from US banks can be accepted with a $3 surcharge. 
PayPal ‘eCheque’ payments take a week longer to arrive, so expect a delay if you use that facility.  You can avoid eCheques by having a credit-card linked to your PayPal account. 
Orders paid by any method outside the PayPal system will likely be subject to delays.

POSTAGE
The amount we charge is what we expect to pay plus approx 15-40p for packing materials. 
There's NO such thing as 'free postage'!  We pay 20% VAT on top of the postage cost price, then ebay take commission (8-10% - including on the postage AND on the VAT... then ebay ask you whether our postage charges are 'fair').  We don't 'include postage', otherwise we can't offer reduced postage for multiple items...
MULTIPLE ITEMS POSTAGE
For multiple items, there will be automatic approximated reduction in postage costs of 50% of further items postage.  BUT make sure you first ADD THEM TO YOUR CART to order them together, not individually.  Depending on the weight of the items, this estimate may not be exact. 
If you want and can wait for an accurate calculation then first put ALL the items into your basket, then go to 'Contact Seller'.  There, click on the 'Request total from seller' button.  We'll then recalculate your combined items postage and send you an invoice, but this may take a day or two.  The postage may or may not calculate as less.  (We're not sure if Ebay provides a 'shopping cart' or 'basket' in all territories; if this doesn't work then try again on the UK, www.ebay.co.uk site.)
DELIVERY TIME excludes weekends and Bank Holidays, which may be different in the UK from elsewhere. 
Packets to overseas destinations (particularly Italy, Russia, South America) often take longer than advertised due to local customs delays. 
OVERSEAS POST is by Royal Mail Air Mail Small Packet, for which there is NO TRACKING number.  Currently we don't regularly offer a 'signed for' or tracked service; but message us if your order is over £50 value and you'd like to add such a service.  WE ADVISE A SIGNED-FOR SERVICE FOR ALL BRAZIL ORDERS.
Please note, the date printed on our postage is a day or two after we print it, ie it’s the date it remains valid until with Royal Mail, not the date of posting.
PACKAGING: For vinyl we use sturdy card cruciforms, not envelopes, and if not shrinkwrapped we remove discs from sleeves, to avoid sleeve splits.  For CDs we use corrugated cardboard, not jiffy bags.
