One Of Our Deleted Albums Series

John Kay was the front man, lead singer, guitarist in Steppenwolf. He released this solo album in 1972 on ABC Dunhill Records, catalogue number DSX-50120.

It has since been deleted from the ABC Dunhill catalogue although it has been re-released on a reissue label.

It is definitely not like a Steppenwolf album. It is mainly acoustic tracks featuring John Kay compositions and covers of songs John Kay liked.

Audio here taken from a 1970's Canadian pressing of the original ABC Dunhill Records vinyl LP.

Track List:

1. Many A Mile 0:00
2. Walk Beside Me 4:29
3. You Win Again (cover of Hank Williams original) 9:44
4. To Be Alive 13:47
