Somebody brought in Steppenwolf and I heard The Pusher right there in school. I came home and told my sister, who warned me not to say anything because she also had the lp. My Mom would have been just as happy as your Dad. Years later I gave my sister 2 Andy Williams and a Nat King Cole for her Steppenwolf.CWMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798867734074134647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-44190451852472157412012-03-02T09:10:36.679-05:002012-03-02T09:10:36.679-05:00CWM:
