[3] The song "Hey Lawdy Mama" was recorded in the studio, but edited in a manner to segue directly into "Magic Carpet Ride", thus retaining the album's "live" feel.

[2] On original LP copies of Steppenwolf Live, "Hey Lawdy Mama" and "Magic Carpet Ride" are banded together as a single track, with a total running time of 7:13.

A differently edited version of "Hey Lawdy Mama", incorporating a fade-out instead of the segue, was released as a single.

The songs "Twisted" and "Corrina, Corrina" are also studio versions which were EQ'd and given some delay effects to match the actual live recordings and overdubbed with audience sounds at the beginning and ending of the songs.

[citation needed] "Hey Lawdy Mama" was covered by the Minutemen on Project Mersh.
