#RMF2019: Steppenwolf
Day 5 of #RocktoberMusicFest2019
Let’s get this page a-rockin’! Today I’ve got a fun band out of Canada…
Wikipedia tells us this about Steppenwolf
Steppenwolf is a Canadian-American rock band, prominent from 1968 to 1972. The group was formed in late 1967 in Los Angeles by lead singer John Kay, keyboardist Goldy McJohn, and drummer Jerry Edmonton. Guitarist Michael Monarch and bass guitarist Rushton Moreve were recruited by notices placed in Los Angeles-area record and musical instrument stores.
I’ve put together a set list of his music for you to enjoy!
- Born to Be Wild
- The Pusher
- Magic Carpet Ride
- Rock Me
- Sookie Sookie
- Jupiter’s Child
- Snowblind Friend
- Hippo Stomp
- Hey Lawdy Mama
- Hoochie Coochie Man

💖💖💖 John Kay is a personal musical hero of mine. Fabulous rock voice! He escaped from East Germany with his widowed mother after WWII, then immigrated to Toronto as a teenager. Great songs showcased here! Their lesser-known material is excellent, too. Thanks, Mary. 🙏 Made my night!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Debbie! Steppenwolf is truly a great band!
DeleteAnother great playlist.
ReplyDeleteHere’s mine, Bob Jovi Rocks Rocktober
Thank you, Songbird!
DeleteLittle Richard, "Long Tall Sally"
ReplyDeleteGuess I'm going to have to change out one of my songs... Great set!
Thanks, John!
DeleteNo need to change out any of your songs. With most of us having pre-written our posts, there was always a chance of some overlap.

ReplyDeleteI didn't know Steppenwolf had recorded a version of 'Hoochie Coochie Man'. Now THERE is a song that has been recorded a godzillion times and could probably be used in several really good BOTB contests! (Food for thought for anyone who thinks. ...Which protly leaves me out.)
