The Stooges

The Stooges, also known as Iggy and the Stooges, were an American rock band from Ann Arbor, Michigan, active first from 1967 (originally as "The Psychedelic Stooges") to 1974, and later reunited in 2003. Although they sold few records in their original incarnation, and often performed for indifferent or hostile audiences, the Stooges are widely regarded as instrumental in the development of punk rock, as well as influential to alternative rock, heavy metal music and rock music at large. The Stooges were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010. In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked them 78th on their list of the 100 greatest artists of all time.
