**** Recommended hard & raw garagerocker 1968 classic from Los Angeles California ~ featuring "BORN TO BE WILD"
The beginnings of hard rock & later on heavy metal can be pinpointed to a single song, Steppenwolf's biker classic "Born to Be Wild," featured on this classic self-titled 1968 debut. Originally from Canada, known as THE SPARROW, the band moved to Southern California, tightened up & turned up, then Steppenwolf exploded out of that West Coast, led by singer/guitarist John Kay. The band took the blues rock of Cream and cranking the volume a few notches higher to create its own style.
There's more to Steppenwolf's great debut than just the aforementioned "Wild" rock standard. There's a cool tribute to Chuck Berry in "Berry Rides Again," the sexually-charged "Sookie Sookie," and the anti-drug statement "The Pusher" and that's just the start. All time American sixties classic!
