Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: Stooges guitarist James Williamson recently released the album “Re-Licked,” on which he reinterpreted 14 early Iggy Pop/Williamson-penned songs. On Friday night at the Bootleg, he’ll be backed by Gregg Foreman, Michael Urbano and Dan Rothchild for a set that will features guests including Alison Mosshart, Jello Biafra, Lisa Kekaula, Joe Cardamone and more.

@Seraphina_L recommends: If you haven’t jumped on the Run the Jewels train yet, you’ve got one more chance for El-P and Killer Mike to change your minds when they play the Regent Theater on Wednesday. (Their album “RTJ2” did make our top albums of 2014 after all.) The U.K.’s Until the Ribbon Breaks opening the night is a bonus.
