Iggy Pop is 70 today (4/21/17)

People talk all about how it's amazing that Keith Richards is still alive....Iggy has him beat for self-abuse and general insanity and he seems to be in great shape. He sure doesn't look 70.
I mean, the guy recorded an album 40 years ago while taking day passes from a institution.

Iggy Pop is notorious for many reasons but this shot, from Cincinnati in 1970, shows a total showman at work! Whilst the Stooges belted out ‘T.V. Eye’, Iggy headed off into – and onto – the crowd! It is an audacious, fun and incredibly talented piece of theatre and this photograph captures all of it perfectly. Iggy eventually re-appeared from the crowd smearing himself in peanut butter. Rock and roll, eh…?
