Description
Here we have what I'd call a good player's copy of the original Iggy and the Stooges "Raw Power" punk album, KC 32111. This is not a 1980s or later repressing. This is the original 1973 first U.S. pressing Variant 2 with the following in the runout: P o P AL 32111-2A, P P BL 32111-2A o
I'll grade the vinyl conservatively at VG visually. There are a few very light surface scratches on each side that don't seem to affect play (it play tested without any skips, pops or ticks, any many on eBay would grade it at VG+). Please see photos of the cover and judge the grade for yourself as I don't like to grade covers (too subjective). I'll say the cover isn't as good as the vinyl itself. There is ring wear, and there's a 3 inch seem split at the top (not at the opening but close to the other side) shown in the fifth photo. There's a small bend/tear in the top right corner on the front depicted in the second photo. There are plenty of other small tears and bends on the cover as well, and the inner sleeve has a tear depicted in the photos.
This isn't a high-end collector's copy that is meant to just sit on a shelf as an investment. This copy is meant to be played, and it sounds great!
