SILVER, 1997's double-disc Steppenwolf anthology, digs deeper into the creme de la creme of this classic rock band than the 1999's single-disc ALL TIME GREATEST HITS. Steppenwolf was one of the first bands to specialize in cranked-up-to-ten anthems. These guys definitely lent a helping hand in creating heavy metal.
The Steppenwolf sound is best displayed on the hits ("Born to Be Wild," "Magic Carpet Ride," "Rock Me"). These songs remain rock-radio standards. Also featured are such highlights as the mid-paced "It's Never too Late" and a pair of anti-drug diatribes, "The Pusher" and "Snowblind Friend."
