This is one of my all time favorite Steppenwolf songs. I bought a CD of their "Greatest HIts" and this song was of course omitted. Also passed over was Lovely Meter. Thanks for posting this.
This is one f the unique situations where an obscure album cut is (in my opinion) the best thing they ever did. Steppenwolf had another couple of songs that stand out. Their version of Hoyt Axton's Snowblind friend is very poignant, and Lovely Meter is the finest song Gabriel Mekler ever wrote. May Steppenwolf be held in fond remembrance.
The is the OTHER song I dedicate to my first lover, John Mayers, from Yorktown High School, whose sister is Dee. The other song I dedicated to him was "Desperation" by Steppenwolf. Love you, John. Hope you found a happy life. No regrets.
Man I still get the chills when I hear this song, thinking back when I was young and played guitar (and still do)-Steppenwolf was absolutely my favorite band and is still one of them. The guita rplaying by Michael Monarch was stunning.
ELGROOVER, Thanks for posting these great songs from the 'Wolf catalog.I love 'em all..too bad most others haven't even heard of these recordings.They only know Steppenwolf by BTBW & MCR.
to Zzsmile ~ my pleasure ☺ and you're right, a lot of folks just don't know wh@ they're missing....you could maybe add "The Pusher" to those two best known tracks.... yet there's so much more of the 'Wolf' worth hearing! ;-j
One of the 'wolf's best!

This is one of my favourite Steppenwolf albums, So hard to find in CD these days, don't know if they re-released it since it was very uncommon.
