Good cover by the Stooges of this Lennon/McCartney song. It was released in 2007 as bonus track of their 4th studio album - The Weirdness.

Thanks! I did not know this existed -- was this on a physical CD or download only?

I think you can find it on iTunes.

It was available with the vinyl edition of The Weirdness.

and as bonus track on itunes edition of The Weirdness.

There were other bonus tracks on the vinyl edition I believe though.

WOW! I have never heard this before. Love the Stooges, but I didn't get the vinyl version of Weirdness. Great version.

I was fortunate to see them in Boston around this time. To me the original lineup is still the best, not a Raw Power guy. It was the first mainstream (for lack of a better word) show I had seen in years where you could actually hear the amps hum between songs - just like any basement/garage band. Also a great, eclectic crowd.

It was on the Japanese issue of the CD with 3 other extra tracks, bizzarely all of the extra tracks were far superior to anything on the rest of what is a terrible CD, the band played very well but Iggys vocals and lyrics were unfortunately the weakest of his great career.

..and you cant really hear the bass on that album, the snare sound is terrible too, songs are boring, and the cover of the damn thing is boring: just a black box. As much as I love the Stooges, It has to be said: Scott is no longer the great drummer he used to be, he lacks the energy that he once had. When you see him on stage, He gets tired on almost every song on stage, and the songs go slower then their orginal versions..I wish Iggy would go back to his solo career and get some young guys behind him.

Didn't know for the Japanese version with the bonus tracks.

Vinyl sounds way better in comparison to CD. Almost like a different mix.
Agree that the 4 bonus tracks are really good.
