Live... in the Raw

Live... in the Raw is the first live album by American heavy metal band W.A.S.P., released in 1987. This album can be seen as something of a breakwater between the 'old' W.A.S.P. of the first three albums and the more mature sound of the releases that would follow. It is also the album to feature "Harder Faster", which is about the PMRC declaring them "sexual perverts".
