I first owned this album back when I was a kiddy boo boo listening to the Beatles, The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks and The Bee Gees and Osmonds. I always loved this album with its psychedelic leanings and anthem-like power rock vibes. Of course "Born To Be Wild" is one of the most classic of all vintage rock songs which defines this album. I will say to all rock fans that you have never this song until you spin the SACD. Imagine clearly defined bass and drum bits with great vocal separation and a wide soundscape and you have this SACD.Steppenwolf play loud and powerful rock with a psychedelic lemon twist throughout. The album features the strong songwriting of band leader John Kay. Steppenwolf got a breakthru with its inclusion in the Dennis Hopper culst classic fild "easy Rider" . The album also includes a Don Covay sould cover inspired version of "Sookie Sookie" which was and still is considered a Soul Classic !
