The Stooges are a U.S. garage rock / heavy psychedelic / proto punk rock band that formed in Ann Arbor, Michigan in 1967. Originally known as the "Psychedelic Stooges", they are credited with kickstarting the punk rock revolution. The band consists of [a11073], Dave Alexander, Ron and Scott Asheton. In 2010, they were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame as performers.

Compiled over 3 years by Stooges historian Graham Ling from original cassette recordings from his and Easy Action Records archives, and for the very first time all of the recordings are in the correct running order, speed corrected and untampered with except sonically cleaning and mastering.

Features completely unheard material. Only 800 boxes will be made available as this project is more of a historical document than a commercial release ‘righting the wrongs’ of the last 45 years of cut 'n paste Stooges albums.

The box will also feature first-hand accounts of these concerts (often very amusing!) as well as photos from the actual shows in a 24 page booklet.
