That sounds like ... Steppenwolf

I was listening to XM Radio this weekend when a song by Steppenwolf came on. I'd forgotten how much I liked them; my earliest inspirations were my older brother's LPs. This is a band that's been mostly, sadly forgotten for reasons I don't really understand. Maybe it's because Born to be Wild was overplayed.

Anyway, I eventually realized that the lead singer of Steppenwolf, John Kay, reminded me of someone else - the lead singer of the Electric Six.

Unfortunately it's most noticeable during the Electric Six's song Danger High Voltage. I say "unfortunately" as it's downright weird hearing the lead singer for the Electric Six, Dick Valentine, channeling John Kay while singing:

Fire in the disco!
Fire in the Taco Bell!
Fire in the disco!
Fire in the gates of hell!

It gets even weirder when you realize that Jack White is the other vocalist, sounding downright feminine (yes, I'm aware this is disputed).

But when you throw in the video for this song, the Weirdness Meter pretty much tops out. Although I really liked the paintings, which were all done in a weekend by a local teenager. I keep hoping one of them will show up on eBay.
