Brave New World

Steve Miller Band

A transitional psychedelic masterpiece. Heavy blues grooves meet experimental studio wizardry and sharp social commentary before the band's pop-rock pivot.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring transition from the title track's acoustic intro into a wall of distorted blues guitar.
Paul McCartney's uncredited, driving bass and drums on the final track providing a heavy British rock backbone.
The swirling, panning sound effects that simulate a psychedelic storm during the instrumental breaks.
