Hoodoo Man Blues
(1965)

by
Junior Wells
One of the truly classic blues albums of the 1960s, and one of the first to fully document the smoky ambience of a night at a West side nightspot in the superior acoustics of a recording studio. Wells just set up with his usual cohorts -- guitarist Buddy Guy (billed as "Friendly Chap" on first vinyl pressings), bassist Jack Myers, and drummer ...

Steppenwolf
Steppenwolf were a band that straddled the fence between jamming hard and maintaining catchy AM radio hits, and for a while they pulled it off effortlessly. Here's their story in a nutshell: all the big hits that have kept the group a staple on oldies and classic-rock radio stations for years. "Born to Be Wild, "Magic Carpet Ride," "Rock Me," and ...

Universal Music Enterprises continues its double-disc Gold series with 31 tracks of Steppenwolf. Remastered and featuring extensive liner notes by notable music writer Scott Schinder, Gold is far too much music for listeners who are content with "Born to Be Wild," "Magic Carpet Ride," "Sookie Sookie," and "The Pusher."

Project: Mersh

by
Minutemen
"I got it! We'll have them write hit songs!" some nameless record company executive says in the cover painting to the Minutemen's 1985 EP Project Mersh, and that joke covers about half of the record's formula. While the Minutemen had been writing more melodic and approachable songs with each release, the massive barrage of 90-to-180-second songs ...

Best of Steppenwolf: 20th Century Masters

Steppenwolf
Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around -- well, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line ...

Gene Phillips & His Rhythm Aces
The cream of Phillips' recordings for Modern in the late '40s and early '50s was collected on the previous Ace anthology Swinging the Blues. Inevitably, there's a little bit of a sweep-up-the-leftovers feeling about this subsequent compilation, which combines sides from 1947-1951 singles that didn't make it onto Swinging the Blues with eight ...

Live [BGO]

by
Steppenwolf
The title says it all. Recorded at various concerts during early 1970, Steppenwolf includes all their hits for mass consumption. Stretched out versions of "Born to Be Wild," "The Pusher" and a ten-minute "Monster" satisfied many a fan. Heavy indeed! James Chrispell, All Music Guide

The Last Goodun' is something of a catchall McDuff compilation, consisting of all the remaining material from his Prestige LPs that had not made it onto compact disc prior to the 2002 release of this CD. The 14 songs, all recorded between 1959-1965, thus were originally scattered among seven separate albums, using more than a dozen supporting ...

Like many other Southern blues musicians looking for work during the Depression, Bumble Bee Slim (aka Amos Easton) made his way to the industrial cities of the northern Mississippi. From Chicago to Detroit, Slim and his contemporaries molded the easygoing sound of Southern, rural blues to the complex and sonorous backdrop of the metropolis, and, ...

I'm So Satisfied: The Complete Mercury & Blue Rock Recordings

Junior Parker
This is not Junior Parker's best material, nor is it his best-known. That said, it's pretty good all the same. Parker was on Mercury, then their subsidiary, Blue Rock, in the second half of the '60s, and throughout he recorded elegant but rollicking soul-blues -- very similar to what he did at Duke, but a little smoother, with a little heavier ...

Gold: Their Great Hits
(1971)
more music like this
by
Steppenwolf
The term heavy metal was rightfully named for this band. Steppenwolf fused traditional rock and R&B with late '60s contemporary heaviness. "Born to Be Wild," their signature tune, has aged amazingly well. Aside from the song's power and performance, its engineering and production is stellar. This goes for most of Steppenwolf's catalog as well. ...

Various Artists
The 1920s is perhaps the only time when we hear what America was actually singing of its own accord, and since record companies at the time had little idea what might actually sell, they went out and recorded seemingly anyone and everyone who had a tune in their head. This, coupled with an increasingly awareness of the black record buying market, ...

by
John Kay & Steppenwolf
While Steppenwolf can take some credit for spawning the heavy metal genre (the term came from the "heavy metal thunder" phrase in "Born to Be Wild"), they remained, at heart, a hard rocking bar band, and this reissue of their 1995 double-disc live set bears witness to that. Now billed as John Kay & Steppenwolf, the band's lineup for the late '90s ...

Rare Items

by
Louis Armstrong
This particular LP is actually much rarer now than its music. A fine cross-section of Armstrong's big-band years, its highpoints include "Thanks a Million," "Swing That Music," "Jubilee" and "I Double Dare You." This is possibly the best single LP of this productive (but much maligned) period in his career. Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
