This Iggy mix version of Raw Power then came out in European territories in a Rock Box Edition, with tin packaging and 16-page booklet, in 2009. It included a 16-page booklet and photo of Iggy at the microphone on the back. Ī version of the album remixed by Iggy Pop, engineer Danny Kadar and executive producer Bruce Dickinson, at New York's Sony Music Studios, was released in 1997 in the US and Europe. The first CDs of Raw Power were issued Stateside in 1988 and in European territories on CBS the following year.

UK cassettes arrived in 1977, with full title lettering on the cover.Īn 8-track cassette version of Raw Power was released in Canada and the US in 1973 – both in red cartridges. The first Raw Power cassettes also came in 1973, in the US, with 'Iggy: Raw Power' lettering on the cover and the tracklisting printed directly onto the cream shells. The first time the cover bore the legend 'Iggy and The Stooges: Raw Power', was when Raw Power was reissued in 1977 in the UK and Europe on Embassy, a budget reissue label that had been acquired and reactivated by CBS. There was also a sticker with the words 'Iggy: Raw Power' on the shrinkwrap. The first US pressings came in this format on Columbia, although some copies have regular CBS inner bags advertising the then-current LP releases on that label. Initial pressings were shipped with an inner bag bearing a black and white detail of the picture of Iggy that appeared on the front cover. The UK LP came on CBS in a single sleeve with Mick Rock's photos from the King's Cross Cinema show on the front and back.
You do see the Embassy occasionally - usually overpriced - but this is only the second 1973 pressing I've ever seen.Raw Power was released on vinyl in February 1973. It's an album I'm always looking out for and I can honestly say that you don't see it much. This is now my fourth copy and my first 1973 pressing. Because he doubted that they had produced many different stampers for an Iggy Pop record in 1973. What he did say is that by 1973 the British CBS had a lot of their "UK" vinyl pressed in Holland and since this was a rather obscure album he thought it might sound very close to the British pressing. In fact I could tell he secretly thought I was nuts to bring up sonics when talking about this album. The price was right and I was curious so I chatted with the seller who said he couldn't remember what it sounded like. Walking Eye and cool artwork with "Iggy Raw Power" printed on the front. So apparently it's becoming a tradition for me to finish the Utrecht spring fair by buying "Raw Power" because when I was about to leave this morning I found a Dutch 1973 original. It mentions a 16 page booklet, as far as I know the Sony Legacy one doesn't have this.? I'm doubting the Discogs entry because it looks a bit cut'n paste.
But if Sony Europe have done their usual bodge job, it will be cut by some unknown mastering engineer and just a cash-in (The European Jeff Buckley Grace Sony Legacy edition is woeful). I understand the MOV is excellent, so I'd be happy if the deadwax info is the same.
I see this on the shelves again which is great, but its on the Sony Legacy label.
