There's so many, which ones should be grabbed or skipped?

This is actually a very good question (what the fuck is up with the previous replies?). My favorite is Wild Love: The Detroit Rehearsals and More, mainly because it has the drum machine cover of "The Ballad of Hollis Brown", but obviously it doesn't cover everything. Probably a Wild Love + Year of the Iguana combo would get you covered with the essentials, but personally I'd still like to hear from an in-depth connoisseur on this matter (maybe at the Stooges board) to figure out sound quality issues and whathaveyou.

On a related note, "Sony Legacy Recordings will release a deluxe version of Raw Power in April 2010. Raw Power: The Masters Edition will contain David Bowie's original Raw Power mix, a live soundboard recording from Atlanta in October 1973, and liner notes written by authorized Stooges biographer Jeffrey Morgan." Awesome shit or what! Now please, Legacy, Rhino, whoever: give the first two NY Dolls albums "the treatment" ASAP. DO IT GODDAMMIT.
