"Steppenwolf" is the first album created by Steppenwolf, released in January 1968 (see 1968 in music) on ABC Dunhill Records.

The album was a very strong debut for the band, featuring their best known song, "Born to Be Wild", as well as "The Pusher", both of which were used in the 1969 movie "Easy Rider". "Berry Rides Again" is a song tribute to guitarist Chuck Berry.
