Released in May 1973, Raw Power was the last album by these pioneers of punk before they imploded forever. James Jewel Osterburg and The Stooges third classic album and their first one for U.S. Columbia also contained the debut of one James Williamson thereafter a regular collaborator with the Ig. Contains the classics "Raw Power," "Search And Destroy" and "Penetration". Iggy's intensity, bohemian lifestyle and all-round "to hell with everything" attitude is seldom given the proper credit for his role in defining what a true punk really was. Raw Power became the LP that launched a million punk rock bands all around the world, leaving its flaming skidmarks on scenes from London to L.A. to Sydney.Review
