Iggy Pop

A collection of autobiographical stories, I Need More is the chronicle of musician Iggy Pop. From his childhood in Ann Arbor, Michigan to the inception and evolution of the seminal rock band, the Stooges, Pop vividly recalls his tales of reckless abandon in his own frank and indomitable manner and confirms his rightful position as a cultural iconoclast and one of rock music's true innovators.
