My user name refers to Steppenwolf the book by Hermann Hesse, Steppenwolf the band, and the brilliant track Steppenwolf by Hawkwind. And the 666 refers to my favourite ever LP by Black Widow which is all about Satan, devil worshipping etc. So although I like a lot of Steppenwolf (the band) music, their albums don't feature too much in my favourites.

I'm a little upset and disappointed that I didn't find a shitload of Steppenwolf here, however I think it's awesome that you have Blues Magoos and Spring and Spirit and Outsiders and Troggs. And Lemon Pipers of course. Green Tambourine made my All-time Greatest Singles chart, that's because it's great!! Actually, Steppenwolf is my Number 2 greatest single of all time. Green Tambourine is number 150 or something like that. But I'm going to have to move it up to the top 100. Heh heh.

Thank you, of course the Beatles were good, very good, but there is an awful lot of other stuff which is very good too.
