***MONOPHONIC ***
BORN TO BE WILD Steppenwolf in the SILVER FOIL COVER! silver foil covers from 40 years ago are next to impossible to find clean as the fragile foil normally gets scuffs and abrasions SO easily....this copy is a very decent keeper...(see details below song titles)
THE RARE MONO RELEASE offers not only different song mixes from the stereo issue but a loud punchy boost in the MONO sound production -- much different from the stereo copy.
**** 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!
