Actually,
Born To Be Wild and
Magic Carpet Ride are done by a group called "Steppenwolf," as opposed to a person named Stephen Wolf. ;)
Regardless, that's a great choice. There's a scene in one of the Star Trek movies ("First Contact," I think) where James Cromwell's about to blast off in his home-made space ship. Just before launch, he screams, "No! No! We can't leave yet!" The others in the scene are hurrying around, thinking they have to abort the mission...
Then Cromwell says, "No, don't abort it! I've got it! Let's
rock and roll!" He pushes the play button on a small radio and Magic Carpet Ride comes
blaring out of the speakers as they roar into outer space. Easily the coolest moment of all the Star Trek films.
