Bernard Sumner recalls, \" It was a time when I set out to write a hit single. I think we got a rather large tax bill, and we sat down with Stephen Hague to write a Top 40 hit.\"\n\n\"I had an idea for the bassline, Gillian (Gilbert, keyboards) had some string ideas, Stephen got some drums down. When we got the track going, I was sent off to the flat we had in London with a bottle of Pernod and told not to show my face again until I'd written the lyrics.\" https://tinyurl.com/36ez76wk\n\nhttps://www.neworder.com/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3561227, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3561227/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-10-04T13:36:28-07:00", "show": 64744, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64744/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" }, { "id": 3561225, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3561225/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-10-04T13:32:57-07:00", "show": 64744, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64744/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://ia804508.us.archive.org/24/items/mbid-81fb62b7-b1ea-3887-92b9-bb2e1e5a29df/mbid-81fb62b7-b1ea-3887-92b9-bb2e1e5a29df-8067252389_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://ia904508.us.archive.org/24/items/mbid-81fb62b7-b1ea-3887-92b9-bb2e1e5a29df/mbid-81fb62b7-b1ea-3887-92b9-bb2e1e5a29df-8067252389_thumb250.jpg", "song": "Search and Destroy", "track_id": "3d7cc4d6-422c-3191-8228-c9d1a3e3cd2a", "recording_id": "213b0cda-2b8c-402d-b514-fbaa70cbcb43", "artist": "Iggy and The Stooges", "artist_ids": [ "1253e5e9-eaa7-4ce6-81b8-09725e8cee43" ], "album": "Raw Power", "release_id": "81fb62b7-b1ea-3887-92b9-bb2e1e5a29df", "release_group_id": "156cbf68-eaea-3f6a-852e-aa6afbd779db", "labels": [ "Columbia" ], "label_ids": [ "011d1192-6f65-45bd-85c4-0400dd45693e" ], "release_date": "1988-01-01", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Support Human DJ's & Donate today: https://www.kexp.org/donate/\n\nFor the Fall Fundraising Drive we are counting down the Listener's Top Albums of all time!\n\n#724 Iggy and The Stooges - Raw Power\n---\nFeatured on KEXP's podcast series \"Cobain 50.\" Check it out here: https://www.kexp.org/podcasts/cobain50/2024/1/10/the-stooges-raw-power-1973/\n\n\"Search and Destroy\" was written by Stooges' frontman Iggy Pop and lead guitarist James Williamson.

They didn't have the song ready for a Christmas single, so they recorded it for their third album, If I Should Fall From Grace With God, which was produced by Steve Lillywhite. Lillywhite took the tapes home and had his wife, Kirsty MacColl, record a scratch vocal, but her voice was so good they decided to keep it. https://tinyurl.com/4tdjyx9b", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3561215, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3561215/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-10-04T13:09:20-07:00", "show": 64744, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64744/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://ia801609.us.archive.org/11/items/mbid-fb1281cb-2ea8-40e6-b23d-7fbf92bf71dd/mbid-fb1281cb-2ea8-40e6-b23d-7fbf92bf71dd-10533098206_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://ia801609.us.archive.org/11/items/mbid-fb1281cb-2ea8-40e6-b23d-7fbf92bf71dd/mbid-fb1281cb-2ea8-40e6-b23d-7fbf92bf71dd-10533098206_thumb250.jpg", "song": "Dirty Blvd.", "track_id": "648d3385-9663-47ed-8074-a98d65191670", "recording_id": "8c17366d-9be4-4f0d-af9d-5acb1739a0b1", "artist": "Lou Reed", "artist_ids": [ "9d1ebcfe-4c15-4d18-95d3-d919898638a1" ], "album": "New York", "release_id": "fb1281cb-2ea8-40e6-b23d-7fbf92bf71dd", "release_group_id": "bf543d9f-f0de-3f46-87b4-f9cddf58806b", "labels": [ "Sire Records" ], "label_ids": [ "be0fec81-5c18-4494-8bbf-0d81dec006bf" ], "release_date": "1989-01-01", "rotation_status": "Library", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Support Human DJ's!
