Immediately on the heels of his first album and his first hit 'Born To Be Wild', the US group of hard psychedelic rock is found in the studio mid 1968 to box his second album with the pieces of his singer John Kay and his producer Gabriel Mekler. In fact hard rock, Steppenwolf proposes a hybrid collection of different styles, disorienting the listener component ballads and using string sections. It is difficult to find something to get excited before other rather pop songs, blues, but the album is amazing especially for the 'Magic Carpet Ride' by John Kay, the exciting syncopated rhythm from a line low imagined by Rushton Moreve, the text well into the psychedelic movement of the time, wrote in twenty minutes, supported by a Hammond organ part and spectacular layers of guitars.
Nevertheless the album sales exceed half a million and reached 3rd place in the Billboard in the same position as his hit 'Magic Carpet Ride', which it is selling even better than the classic 'Born To Be Wild'.
