Originally from Canada, Steppenwolf exploded out of the 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.\r\nThere's more to Steppenwolf's great debut than just the aforementioned \"Wild\" rock standard. There's a fun tribute to Chuck Berry in \"Berry Rides Again,\" the sexually-charged \"Sookie Sookie,\" and the anti-drug statement \"The Pusher\" (later covered by Blind Melon in the '90s).\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 01\/22\/2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Steppenwolf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48591495528737,"sku":"62GR35-URVY-42","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/5099\/0625\/files\/steppenwolf-steppenwolf-import-180-gram-vinyl_B8RqX.jpg?v=1740280275","url":"https:\/\/birds-nest-records.myshopify.com\/products\/steppenwolf-steppenwolf-import-180-gram-vinyl","provider":"Bird's Nest Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
