See It First: The Stooges’ James Williamson & Friends Play Live in L.A.

On January 16, 2015, James Williamson – guitarist for punk icons the Stooges – played a rare one-off concert in support of his most recent solo album Re-Licked. The LP featured lesser-known Stooges rarities originally penned by Stooges frontman Iggy Pop and Williamson in 1973-74 as the follow-up to their quintessential album Raw Power; however this time they were properly recorded and mixed for the first time with special guests.

Williamson welcomed some of these musical friends on stage with him, including such names as Alison Mosshart (The Kills/ Dead Weather), Jesse Malin, Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys), Lisa Kekaula (The Bellrays), Joe Cardamone (Icarus Line), Carolyn Wonderland, Ron Young (Little Caeser) and Frank Meyer (The Streetwalkin’ Cheetahs).

Yahoo Music is excited to premiere the concert for the first time, which will be released on film at a later date.
