    Dear Customer of DCFC - The Barsuk Years, 

    We are writing to thank you for your purchase of this set and to address a problem that you may have discovered.  By now, many of you have received your set, and you may be wondering why several of the records are mislabeled.  It has been discovered that the records were mixed up at the manufacturing plant during production. We are looking into this issue and are working diligently to understand how this mix-up occurred.  Rest assured, we will fix each and every one of the sets that are mislabeled.  This will require us to have the mislabeled albums remanufactured and reshipped out to you.  We do not yet know when we can expect to receive the remanufactured albums, but we are working to provide an anticipated shipping date as soon as possible.  Once again, please accept our deepest apologies, and we ask for your patience while we work to correct this issue.

    If you wish to write us regarding this issue, we kindly request that you email us under a different thread as opposed to replying to this email.
     
    Regards,
    A+R Support

    "a real fucking group... they also make fucking records. They don't just
    go and twiddle around on stage to make a bunch of fucking money"--Iggy
    Pop

    Better 40 years later than never: The follow-up to the first record ever
    to bear the Iggy and the Stooges logo--the immortal proto-punk
    masterpiece Raw Power--will finally be out  April 30, when Fat Possum
    Records releases the all-new Iggy and the Stooges studio album, Ready To
    Die.

    Ready To Die finds Iggy Pop, guitarist James Williamson and drummer
    Scott "Rock Action" Asheton reunited for a full album of all-new
    material for the first time since the legendary Raw Power sessions, with
    Mike Watt filling in for the late Ron Asheton on bass. The results are
    the closest thing to a time capsule to 1973--or at least to Iggy's
    subsequent efforts with Williamson, including 1977's Kill City and
    1979's New Values--that rock 'n' roll is likely to proffer in this
    millennium. The new album's opening one-two of "Burn" and "Sex &
    Money" pair sublimely blunt and self-explanatory subject matter with
    back alley razor-blade guitars and a troglodytic rhythmic stomp as
    intensely single-minded as Iggy's lyrical statements of intent.
    Elsewhere on the album, anthems abound in the form of the most dead-on
    rallying cry for the lower-working-class dispossessed to date--the
    succinctly and aptly titled "Job"--as well as a title track that mixes a
    signature Iggy Pop mission statement of angry desperation with guitar
    pyrotechnics that recall those halcyon opening salvos of "Search &
    Destroy."Just as Iggy exhumed the original Stooges name when he reunited
    in 2003 with the Asheton brothers, the revival of the Iggy and the
    Stooges moniker that first appeared on the cover of Raw Power heralded
    the return of guitarist James Williamson to the fold in 2009, or as Iggy
    put it then "although 'the Stooges' died with Ron Asheton, there is
    still 'Iggy and the Stooges'." As far as the decision to record and
    release a new Iggy and the Stooges album for the first time since 1973,
    Iggy recently commented:

            "My motivation in making any record with the group at this point is no
    longer personal. It's just a pig-headed fucking thing I have that a
    real fucking group when they're an older group they also make fucking
    records. They don't just go and twiddle around on stage to make a bunch
    of fucking money..."
