All music is bigger in Japan bro.
Every band from the US who has major deals releases specuial versions for the Japanese, usually with extra tracks.
Yeah Cheap trick crept in mid late seventies...
But Iggy Pops Raw Power was recorded in 1972/73
That Album is what set off the whole thing....
Theres a band that lives a few streets over.... known throughout the US though.... tour extensively with "Toilet Boys"
Their name comes from line one of Raw Power in the track 1 "Search And Destroy."
The line is "Im a street walkin cheetah."
Of course the band name is "Street Walking Cheetahs."
Killer rock music,.
