Excerpt from "Lust For Life", a 1986 Dutch documentary. Ron talks about classic Stooge riffs and visits the music hall where The Stooges were discovered.

This is from a compilation DVD titled "TV Eye". I have a scan of the cover if you want to try to find it for yourself: www.smig.org/tveye/TVEyecover.jpg

  • I paid £40.00 for this in 1987 on a VHS tape from a dealer in London of the complete VPRO documentary and other Iggy clips. Would be well cool to see any other footage from that time!

  • I have the full documentary on the "TV Eye" DVD, which is what I ripped this from. When I have more time, I'll post the whole doc, but for now, I just wanted to pay my respects to Ron, so I isolated this part. Unfortunately, the conversion squashed the video. The original view is normal TV screen size. That's what happens with freeware. You get what you pay for.

  • I met Ron, once when Destroy All Monsters..he had thoes muclebound hands like a surgeon

  • Extremely underrated weapon of The Stooges.

  • JOIN THE RON ASHETON FOUNDATION...for some reason they won't let me give the link,PLEASE visit...maybe through the Official Iggy and The Stooges Site.

    Proceeds for homeless Animals , also to help aspiring musicians...

    I got an e-mail from president Kathy Asheton with words of encouragement. Do your bit for the legend, give some back...)O(

  • RIP Ron - you were such a bad ass guitar player and you'll never be forgotten...

  • he seems like the most serene guy.

  • Ron's passion for music is so evident here. Rest in Peace Ron Asheton - the coolest guitar player ever!

  • hay there's more to the interview

    put up the rest

  • Fantastic, precious. Wish it went on for hours. Thank you.

  • WOW!!! This is THE best inside view of 'Ron' I have ever seen!!! He can explain things so easy to understand (IN UR FACE)!!! What a great true down to earth man he was! You r still missed as a brother 'Ron Ashton'...R.I.P. Thx 4 sharing.

  • The weird thing is that Ron doesn't play a lot of different stuff, maybe it's his guitar, maybe it's his amp, maybe it's just the magic of the stooges, but it sounds so different in every song

    Dat's da rocknroll
