Forty years ago on this day, 17 December 1982, I watched Iggy Pop’s live TV appearance on The Tube, and it totally blew me away. Here’s my new restoration from broadcast sources, of Run Like a Villain from that legendary 1982 Tube appearance.

After the six months touring his Party album, in the latter part of 1981, it seems Iggy took some time out. In June 1982 he was in the studio with his then-mainstay collaborator, Rob Duprey on guitar and keyboard duty, and Chris Stein and Clem Burke from Blondie, on bass and drums respectively. Chris Stein was also on production duty and the results were released in September ’82 as the Zombie Birdhouse album. The album was released on Chris Steins new label, Animal Records, which also released that year the brilliant 2nd album by The Gun Club, Miami. The label folded in 1984 when Chris Stein was struck down by serious illness.

Iggy commenced a tour for the Zombie Birdhouse album in October 1982. From the previous touring band, he retained Rob Duprey on Guitar and keyboards, and Michael Page on Bass. He added Larry Mysliwiec on Drums and another Blondie refugee Frank Infante on Guitar. The majority of the shows were in the US and Canada, finishing up in Europe with two shows in Paris, two in London and then finally The Tube TV performance on the 17th of December.

Yes, I am the fuckin’ greatest of all time!

To me, Run Like a Villain is up there with Iggy’s greatest tracks, and surely the Tube appearance is one of the finest TV performances of his career. Therefore, it felt absolutely necessary to create a decent quality version, and get it online for it's 40th anniversary.

Thanks for watching, hope you dig it!
