Details: Amazon.ca The now-ubiquitous biker anthem "Born to Be Wild" first heard on this debut may have defined the career of L.A.-via-Toronto rock squad Steppenwolf, but the rest of the album has plenty to offer. Kicking off with the acid-fried funk of "Sookie Sookie," Steppenwolf, the album, is a stunning celebration of '60s-era hard rock--equal parts R&B, blues, and psychedelia. Vocalist John Kay shouts and struts through 11 cuts like a gnarly Mick Jagger--all swagger. Backed by guitar, bass, drums, and Hammond organ, he growls, grunts, and howls over the din, restraining himself only occasionally on softer songs like "A Girl I Knew" and "Take What You Need." Whether they're covering Willie Dixon's "Hoochie Coochie Man," Hoyt Axton's dark anti-drug rant "The Pusher," or handing down a scathing indictment of American society in the '60s in the band's own "The Ostrich," Steppenwolf rock out. A timeless classic. --Adem Tepedelen Product Description Steppenwolf
