Brave New World

by Steve Miller Band

The 3501st greatest album of all time

Brave New World (1969) captures the Steve Miller Band in a late 1960s mode that mixes blues rock and psychedelic rock, featuring electric guitar-driven songs, blues-based songwriting, and period studio experimentation. The album reflects the band’s San Francisco-era sound and sits between their raw, improvisatory roots and the more concise pop-rock approach Steve Miller explored in later records.
