From Third Man Records description: Perhaps the quintessential album from Iggy and the Stooges, Raw Power was sequenced so Side 1 and Side 2 mirrored each other in sonic approach, with hard rockers kicking off the sides followed by electrifying ballad and so forth. Working with the original David Bowie mixes from 1973, the eight classic Raw Power tracks here span four singles, pairing “Search And Destroy” b/w “Raw Power,” “Gimme Danger” b/w “I Need Somebody,” “Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell” b/w “Shake Appeal,” and “Penetration” b/w “Death Trip.” Two additional outtake EPs add context and depth to the set, with highlights including “I’m Hungry” (an embryonic exploration that would later coalesce into “Penetration”), the standalone stand-out, “Hey Peter,” the Bo Diddley-influenced, chest-thumping “Doojiman,” the futuristic harbinger of hardcore “I Got A Right,” and the rollercoaster fury of “I’m Sick Of You,” all of which call to mind how different the history of rock ‘n’ roll might be had these non-album tracks been included on Raw Power.
The Raw Power - The 7-inch Edition packaging features the iconic Mick Rock cover on a striking silver-on-silver foil-clad slipcase, inspired by a rare, long-forgotten press kit assembled in the lead-up to the album’s original release. Both outtake discs live in stark, captivating picture sleeves highlighting seldom-seen photos from 1973, shot by Leee Black Childers. Tying it all together is a vibrant 7” x 6” patch reproducing the inimitable cheetah as featured on Iggy’s jacket on Raw Power’s back cover. Drawing inspiration from said back patch, the six discs in the set are all pressed utilizing the palette of those colors, with silver thrown in to harken back to both Iggy’s iridescent pants from the album photos and aforementioned press kit.
