"I Ain't Superstitious" was written by bluesman Willie Dixon and in 1961. It was released in 1968 by The Jeff Beck Group, which included Jeff Beck, Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood, and
Micky Waller, on their debut album "Truth". "Truth" has since been regarded as a seminal work of heavy metal because of its use of blues toward a hard rock approach. According to Pete Prown and HP Newquist, "although some have claimed that this disc was the first metal album, the sound actually leaned more towards a heavy brand of blues rock." Classic Rock magazine ranked Truth eighth on its list of the 30 greatest British blues rock albums; an accompanying blurb read, "it was an album that not only helped establish the British blues rock sound, but featured many of its best exponents." Tom Scholz of Boston has listed it as his favorite album on Gibson's online magazine, stating, "I knew Jeff Beck's Truth album inside out...".
