To those of us growing up in the 70s, this was just our music. Looking back, I realize how truly fortunate we were.
Oh my gosh we sure we're are music rocked literally 🥰🎶🎵
It was a great time to be alive. I remember flipping through the albums in the store.
@@markcosenza3274 Me too! Album covers were often works of art.
Absolutely!!
And it didn't matter what genre it was. Msuicians back then had pure talent, and they enjoyed what they did.
Steppenwolf doesn't get near as much attention today as they deserve. This was one of the greatest rock bands of the sixties who pushed boundaries, musically and lyrically.
The 60’s had the greatest music. This is from 1968. The music I grew up with. Keep playing those golden oldies.
You have great musical taste! I really can't decide was 68, 69 or 70 my favorite yr for music. You keep me Hanging On by Vanilla Fudge was very good from this yr also Shame Shame Magic Lanterns, Time by Chamber Brothers, Come Back by the Equals. And the hits keep coming 😀 also the boss jocks added to the enjoyment
@@Mark-iv7np thank you. I remember them well. I’m also a big disco fan. Great dance music. Favorite disco group The Trammps, favorite female Donna Summer
Wow, you are so right! I'm older than I thought :-)
and 70's
@@Mark-iv7np Late 60's early 70's music kicked ass !!!
Over fifty years, and I still remember what my old-man said when I blared this the first time on my 8-track stereo, "TURN THAT G_____N HIPPIE CRAP DOWN, AND TAKE THE GARBAGE OUT!"
HAHAH that's great, what a great way to remember your dad :)
These days the wife tells me the same thing, just w/o the profanity.
My Dad could take the softer stuff, (Moody Blues, actually got to liking “Tommy”).
But i’ll never forget - he said “son., some of that music is OK, but when you put that black guy on you’ve got to use headphones”.
That black guy? Jimi Hendrix. 😂
@@jwaldhelm Least your old-man used the word "Black."
Others by Steppenwolf: the pusher, hey lawdy mama, born to be wild, rock me
Eric, my man, you left off some great ones.....Sookie Sookie....Monster.....Snowblind Friend....Don't Step On The Grass Sam
@@johnnygaffney4089 Sookie Sookie .... tip of my brain and I couldn't remember it, thanks Johnny, cheers man :)
This was the best time to be young ....our music was the greatest
Couldn't agree more
Actually just told someone here I still can't decide if 68 69 or 70 was my favorite yr for music 🤔Very difficult decision, haha
Rogue you are the sweetest !
Favorite song for 50 years
I was in nam when this came out
This is a definite road-trip music. Another great by them is The Pusher. And that’s a rounchy guitar with feedback.
No doubt. And a must on the playlist while camping - whether in the mountains, lakes or on the banks of the Colorado river (for any river for that matter). Timeless music.
The Pusher... always been my fave of theirs... it's the one on my playlist.
Written by…Hoyt Axton, great artist in his own right.
The music of the 1960s-70s was rooted in a revolutionary (and psychedelic!) counterculture... When corporate control was cemented over that music (described beautifully, and cryptically on Hotel Cali by the Eagles), that countercultural influence was rather systematically obliterated. Thank the gods we still have that era to look back to!
I saw them live. John Kay and his voice is one of the greatest rock voices ever.
I am an old dude and was around back in the day when this song hit the market - 1968. I was 18 and what I love about this song is how almost everyone reacts to it when first hearing it unless your dead or deaf. It makes you move like tap your toes bob your head swing your body side to side. Did that to me at 18 and still does at 74, love this song.
I feel that my dude! Those first few bars of the down beat always bring me up outta my chair.
You have the most expressive facial expressions and hand gestures. They are enhanced by your enthusiasm and beauty. Thanks for another great video!
Psychedelic and funky.
growing up in the 60's and 70's was a very special and unique time for music ..
i remember when this first came out dancing with the super foxy teen girls at the school dance....the song rocked and so did those girls✌
As already mentioned: Steppenwolf's songs can stand by themself, but with the movie "Easy rider" they become iconic in the end of the 60's. "Born to be wild" even more! And "The pusher". Jimi Hendrix with the song "if 6 was 9" is also music from the same film.
Great call! I forgot all about that classic movie.
Man I didn't realize that movie had so many great songs. I'm guessing the only other 60's movie that could compare would be "The Graduate."
Don't forget this song on Team America. F*** Yeah I
"If 6 Was 9" IMHO was the coolest Number from the '60's. You do your thing, and I'll do my thing and it's Cool.
......Goldie McJohn is playing the organ. He's one of the most under rated keyboardists of that era.....
Monster, The Pusher, Rock Me, Snow Blind Friend, Born To Be Wild any of those, take your peek!
My favorite Steppenwolf song! I was 14, we was trippin'!
hahaha. When you said "where are they taking me" I said out loud - Dropping you off a cliff and you roll to a stop. Great reaction. You a real one.
Love this woman’s expressions.
I met the drummer he doesn’t live to far from me was doing some work at his house he’s the last one of them that’s still living! The man was so nice he took one of his own posters in his house of the band signed it and give it to me!! We talked for hours about the good and wild times they had it was great!! Awesome reaction!!
John Kay will be disturbed to hear of his own death
Great memory to have.
Who are you talking about, Ron Hurst?
As a Boomer, this is in my wheelhouse. Then I saw them in the 90's at the Street Scene in San Diego. Being way passed their "use by date", I had zero expectations. I was blown away. Excellent show to my great surprise. And of course they did this one.
I can picture you, back in the day , nibbling on some shrooms and moving to the music !!!!!!!
released in 1968 this is one of those songs that takes me back to my childhood hanging out with the hippies in Berkeley
You are most definitely one cool lady!
Ten Years After….I’d Love To Change The World❤️
Steppenwolf are among the gods of Psychedelic Rock n' Roll ........ and yeah........... you heard it in the Disney animation film "Arabian Nights." "The Pusher" is another great song. Check it out!!!!
its the VERY DEFINITION of Syncopation....pokin and jabbin like no other song
Rock Me, Sookie Sookie, The Pusher, Don't Step on the Grass Sam, Hey Lawdy Mama, Monster/America and of course Born to be Wild.
This song is actually in a movie, which I haven't seen by the way.
According to Wikipedia, Candy is a 1968 sex farce film directed by Christian Marquand from a screenplay by Buck Henry,
based on the 1958 novel of the same name by Terry Southern.
Hey beautiful woman😍.Thanks for sharing. Tripped many times to this song.
We were born at the right time. We were truly blessed to be there.
Hammond Leslie Organ I believe. Those organs have provided some of the most amazing sounds in rock during the 70s.
Been listening to them since the 60s and you are so cute 😊
I bought this album when it came out in 1968 because it had a cool cover.
From about 1967-1969, everywhere you looked there were fantastic groups coming out with new, exciting music.
Probably my favorite intro to a song....ever !!!
High school, 1968, freakin goosebumps!! Awesome!! Glad to could enjoy this!! 😊🌹🌹🌹
I got to see them live in concert in 1970. After the show I went on stage and got the glass John Kay had been drinking out of during the concert. Wish I still had it, but a drunk friend tripped and fell at a party, knocking it over and shattering it into a million pieces. Oh well, at least I got a good memory out of it. John Kay is still a rock hero!
Awesome memory!!!
If this came out today it would top the charts. Timeless! You too cute 😍
Rocked out to this at 18 yrs old in 68', 60's early 70's were the best yrs for me. So much great music.......
You should be a DJ on a late night easy jams radio show. Your voice is so chill and velvety
I agree
When my kids were young we would go to the Golden Gate park in my ‘71 westy I would play this song and my kids would rock out. Fast forward 27 years my #1 5 yr old grandson heard this song for the first time while riding in my bus and he loved it. Every time we would go anywhere he would hop in the back seat buckle in and tell me to play that song. (And yes it had all the pre-requisite Grateful Dead stickers) my grandson is 17 now and my beloved westy has passed on to the great bus in the sky. Grandson and I really miss it.
I love that story!
I don’t know if you get notification on comments anymore. I can’t get over how sweetly you express your emotional reaction. Your smile is radiant and charming. I am charmed.
wow something cheering, thanks!!
When I first heard this in 68 I knew it would be a big hit, it was. Loved it then, still do. Born to be Wild and Rock Me are very good also. Good day to you.
I saw Steppenwolf and Iron Butterfly together in 1969. I was 15 and smoking a pipe packed with some great stuff, 20 feet away from the stage. Every song was longer. This song, Born To Be Wild, Rock Me Baby and The Pusher, then IRON BUTTERFLY.... Extended long.....In-A-Gada-Da-Vida for 45 minutes.......AWESOME
Awesome reaction.made me smile!
Steppenwolf had a lot of social commentary songs, Monster, The Ostrich, Don't Step on the Grass Sam, The Pusher, Snowblind Friend.
We used to trip to this amazing music.
In the late 80's, a local classic rock station was having a contest to win tickets to see this band. You had to fax in something related to their music, so I was in art school at the time and I sketched a picture of a hippie riding a magic carpet and won the contest and a pair of tickets to see them at a small club near Seattle, WA. It was a fun show!
The first concert I went to was these guys with Pacific Electric and Gas.
My magic carpet was a Harley that was as old as I was. Steppenwolf is very popular with bikers.
one of my all-time favorites!!!!!! thanks!
I remember this being played when I was on my first holiday abroad to Spain in 1969, which I had heard before and enjoyed but it always reminds me of that holiday. I think it was on a Juke Box in the hotel bar.
That tune was a trip. Psychedelic music is like that.
A clip of the song was played in the movie Star Trek TNG: First Contact as Zefram Cochran initiates his rocket launch. That is just one of several movies that used this song. Others include Reservoir Dogs, Apollo 13, and Legal Eagles.
Yes indeed Vicki have seen them a few times it'll never get old great song great reaction🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’m so happy to see a reaction to Steppenwolf! My favorite band in high school
I remember my geometry teacher let us listen to Steppenwolf while we worked on his assignment for the day. I always loved their song Tighten up Your Wig. The organ player went by the name Mars Bonfire.
Mars Bonfire was Dennis Edmonton who played guitar in the Sparrow the band before Steppenwolf, Goldy McJohn was the organist in the Wolf.
I'm old and got to see this band in concert, great show. React to get your motor running by these guys. Love your reactions.
Absolutely love your attitude in this reaction. You go girl
The rock band Steppenwolf takes us on a “Magic Carpet Ride” (1968). Hermann Hesse’s novel Steppenwolf (1927) includes a “Magic Theater,” where the protagonist Harry Haller is able to explore the pieces and potential of his discombobulated self. Eventually, Harry sees that his hyper-intellectualism and disgust with bourgeois ways have stifled him to the verge of suicide. He has to learn to laugh.
Truly a great psychedelic song.I knew first time I heard this great song ok in 68 it would be big. John Kay is a very good singer. Born to be Wild is an iconic song and Rock Me is very good.
Hey Rogue, if this hit your vibe, you would definitely like "Born to Be Wild". 🏍️
If y'all killing time, you would like the classic cult film "Easy Rider", killer soundtrack. ☮️🌹🎼🎵🎸🎶🎹🎶🎶
this song reminds me of one of the most thrilling nights of my life…🔥🔥🔥
You are my favorite to watch for reactions. I love your emotion and energy. Keep up the great work
It's a ride...and the music takes you on it.
The moment you realize we had the best music back in the day.... is NOW.
When I was younger, I would play with the lyrics, and sing magic moustache ride... It usually paid off ..
Such a wonderful rock classic with perfect timing and blend of music, vocal, and story telling. The instrumental interlude depicts the trippy carpet ride
My first 8track tape. Goddamn the Pusher Man.
Smoked alot of grass, popped alot of pills.....the Pusher.....Born to be Wild--- the Anthem of the 60's and 70's......... John Kay and Steppenwolf.....
This song has been used in movie soundtracks and TV ads.
we had great music,cars and guitars.oh and the immortal Hammond B3 with spinning Leslie speaker.
For me, John Kay had the perfect voice for authentic Rock 'n Roll .... gruff, gritty & full of attitude .... not arrogant but full of confidence fueled by an abundance of testosterone
Best German-Canadian Rock singer out there, probably. Maybe the only!
@@xyzcomp08 I believe you. I was lucky enough to see Steppenwolf with John Kay back in the late 60's at the Rochester War Memorial, and it was a real treat ....... I actually snuck out of work (I was a teletype operator at a local newspaper, and I worked alone in the evening) to walk to the concert, which was right across the street, and then I snuck back into work after the concert.
"Speaking Freely" with John Kay, Originally aired on June 26, 2001 if you have not seen this enjoy!

@@drewpall2598 Thanks, Drew. I will definitely check it out ....
I was driving a carload of people to their concert in NJ back in 1969 ! It was a blast ! Except for 1 thing I took too much acid it was called 4 Way Blue Cheer I was chosen to drive back to our town ! I Don't remember Any concert {Just a little} and I don't remember driving ! You see there was color's everywhere and weird sounds ! I remember that! HOW DID I DRIVE!! AH ! I Don't remember that! LOL
It's definitely got a groove.
Yo big props for reacting to some steppenwolf! Definitely don't see much reactions to them if at all.
Lol, if I there was ever a Grammy award for “best song with 22 seconds of pointless noise at the beginning”, this song would win it walking away. I love her reaction when the music kicks in. He (John Kay) wrote this song for his wife. They’re still married :)
I remember being in high school English class and we were doing a block of classes on modern music. I did my report on "The Pusher". I got an A! Great reaction!
I remember me and my two friends sitting in his room high and jamming to this and j giles
Loved it when it first came out - but man I was high - taking a magic carpet ride ❤️❤️❤️
Songs from my youth. Great choice!
This song is about getting high, laying on the carpet between two speakers and tripping out to the music. I’ve taken many magic carpet rides. It’s an out of body experience.
might i suggest you listen to this over and over for the rest of your life...about 5 times or more per year. It gets better and better as you age and look back on the memories of your life while listening to this song. If i could have heard it younger than 14, I would have lived a much better life due to the positive effects felt.
I know it from back in the day, but laughed my a$$ off when I heard it in the movie, Team America. Was funny watching those puppets dancing to it. Lol.
Rogue (absolutely love the name) this is a blast from the past, for sure!
60s, 70s and then the 80s were an exceptional period for the musical tapestry. Probably the fullest, richest era for musicians, singer/songwriters and performers.
Steppenwolf was among those leading us into the Golden Age of music. Of course there are the Beatles, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Zeppelin and others... the list becomes very long, but you get the drift.
This music hit me in the 'sweet spot', being born in 1960, and it stirs the nostalgia stew.
I was the first son of a Rock and Roll musician in a 'country' town. I've heard it all but my taste runs to rock and metal, even to this day. And I've been to dozens of concerts ranging from Floyd to Elton John to Metallica to Styx to Rascal Flatts.
My tastes are still evolving and I'm discovering some bands from Europe in the Symphonic Metal genre.
And what a fantastic rabbit hole that has become. That genre is mind-blowing and since it began flowering in the 90s it's provided some of the biggest, and most pleasant surprises.
Bands like Nightwish, Dream Theater, Evergrey, Epica, Kamelot, Avantasia, AYREON, Delain, Spiritbox, Toehider, and so many more.
Specifically, the Dream Theater portal is probably the richest of the entry points...
One of my favorites, and I highly recommend...
Dream Theater - Pull Me Under ua-cam.com/video/mipc-JxrhRk/v-deo.html
I think you'll love it and hope you make time for it soon.
ps... I think you're gorgeous, have great taste and love your reactions!
You were having a psychedelic moment only without the drugs ,similar Tripp, great song great group it was in the sixties when I first heard this song ,thanks for the memories 💓🖤 your reactions was phenomenal
Welcome to the late 60's and the era of good music :)
John Kay, the vocalist, sounds like he gargles with drain cleaner--and still it's an appealing voice. I heard him in person at the Anaheim Convention Center in 1972.
I think the Star Trek movie that used this was " First Contact". When earthlings made their first warp flight into space the inventor/pilot played this on a cassett tape during takeoff.
Their other big hit was Born to be wild. You won’t be disappointed 🔥
I remember when I was in high school Stepenwolf came to Monroe Louisiana and held a concert they had a song called the Pusher Man and when they started playing it the power's that be turned the power off this was in 1969 if I'm remembering right after all it was the 60s
That pic is from the album "Steppenwolf 7." Magic Carpet Ride was from their second album entitled "Steppenwolf The Second."
What a great reaction. Love your style.

The organ sound - my Girl - is a special sound. It is produced by one or more rotating speaker boxes (inside the Organ - see that Organ in the videoclip "A Whiter Shade Of Pale - Gary Brooker/Prokol Harum in Denmark 2006) - the organ was named after its inventor/builder and is called "Hammond" organ. The instrument in its time (50s to 70s) was THE ORGAN. After or during that came the keyboards and synthesizers with their samples. Today, every cheap keyboard for home use has a Hammond sample implemented.
But many bands come back to it, a revival of the Hammond sound is not far away.
Hey thanks again. I been waiting for this!!!
This was also featured in Star Trek: First Contact as the soundtrack of humanity's first warp speed test.
Young lady watching immerse yourself in to this song made he believe that you would have fir fight in. Enjoy!
This song was also used to good effect in the 2005 movie "Sahara" (Matthew McConaughey, Steve Zahn, Penélope Cruz).
