Jerre Peterson did not want to remain in the group without them, so he departed as well, leaving Peterson, Stephens and Whaley as a trio.

The "Summertime Blues" single was backed with Dickie Peterson's original song "Out Of Focus". Peterson also contributed to the album the eight-minute "Doctor Please" and "Second Time Around", which features Paul Whaley's frantic drum solo. Filling out the record, the band cranked out blues covers "Rock Me Baby" (by B.B. King) and "Parchman Farm" (, but retitled "Parchment Farm").

The group underwent several personnel changes, the first occurring after the 1968 release of after Leigh Stephens – who never used drugs – was asked to leave the band after criticizing his bandmates' behaviour. He was replaced by , formerly of Los Angeles band the Other Half. On 1969's New! Improved! there were different guitarists on side 1 and side 2 (Randy Holden and Bruce Stephens) due to Holden's unanticipated departure from the band. Following Holden's departure the band's line-up initially consisted of Dickie Peterson (bass), Tom Weisser (guitar), and Mitch Mitchell (drums), before Whaley returned and Bruce Stephens joined the band. Later, Ralph Burns Kellogg joined the band on keyboards.Both Stephens and Kellogg had previously worked together in The Emeralds, a well-known northern California backing band in the 1960s.

While in Mint Tattoo, Stephens and Kellogg had opened shows for , , Ten Years After, and . Bruce Stephens later played with Pilot (not the same band that had a hit with "It's Magic"), one of Leigh Stephen's (no relation) post-Blue Cheer projects. One song from this period, "Fillmore Shuffle" was later recorded by on his second solo album, Sammy Hagar (1977). See Profile of Bruce Stephens ; Rearwindowmusic.com, via Cdbaby.com Blue Cheer's style now changed to a more commercial hard rock sound à la Steppenwolf or . By the fourth album, Blue Cheer, Paul Whaley had left the band and had been replaced by Norman Mayell, and following the release of the fourth album Bruce Stephens also left the bandBruce Stephens continued in music, but with a much lower profile. In early 2009, he released Saturday Freedom (Rear Window Records), being a compilation of his compositions over the past three decades. "Rendezvous", a song co-written by Stephens, was included in The Cage, the 1982 album by Tygers of Pan Tang. Also in 1982, Stephens had released his first solo album, Watch That First Step, which featured supporting performances by Lonnie Turner, and , among others. Stephens has the distinction of being, at the age of sixteen, the youngest member in the history of the Musicians' Union of Sacramento, California.

According to Peterson, the group's lifestyle during this period caused problems with the music industry and press. Peterson said the group was outraged by the and society in general.

The new line-up of Peterson, Kellogg, Mayell and Yoder in 1970 saw the release of The Original Human Being, followed by 1971's Oh! Pleasant Hope. When the latter album failed to dent the sales charts, Blue Cheer temporarily split up in 1971.

Michael Fleck was auditioned as drummer. The reformed Blue Cheer recorded an album with Jim Keylor at Army Street Studios. The album was initially unreleased, but received an official release in 2012 by ShroomAngel Records as Blue Cheer 7. The band embarked on a US tour in 1978–1979 with setlists that featured tracks from the first two Blue Cheer albums, and then returned to a period of inactivity after the tour completed.

Further reconfigurations, relocation to Germany, second and third extended hiatus (1980s–1998)

Peterson and Leigh Stephens were together once again in Blue Cheer with drummer at the in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park on October 29, 2005, and their lively performance drew old rockers like and others from backstage to observe. They did some recordings in in Winter 2005 with of Raven and Pentagram on drums, due to Paul Whaley choosing to remain in Germany. While Hasselvander played on the entire album, his contribution was reduced to drums on five songs, with Paul Whaley re-recording the drum parts on the balance of the album.

Dispute over ownership of band name
In recent years, a dispute has arisen as to ownership of the Blue Cheer band name. It was reported that, as of the early 2000s (decade), former Blue Cheer guitarist , assisted by Randy Pratt of The Lizards band, had trademarked the Blue Cheer band name. Holden's association with Blue Cheer was quite brief; his only recorded output with the band is three tracks on New! Improved! from 1969.Though Paul Whaley played drums on Holden's 1996 release (recorded in 1993), . The album was originally on Captain Trip Records , a Japanese label which has also released Dickie Peterson's two solo records. The matter had upset Dickie Peterson, given his position as a co-founder of the band and the only continuing member since its inception, but does not appear to have been resolved. Interview with Dickie Peterson by Nightwatcher for Rock N Roll Universe, February 2008.

According to Randy Pratt, this report is not entirely accurate. Pratt provides uncited commentaryBy way of edits to the Blue Cheer Wikipedia page as "Whistleinthewind". as follows:

Legacy
Blue Cheer is often credited as one of the very earliest pioneers of heavy metal and their version of "" has been cited as the first heavy metal song. According to Tim Hills in his book, The Many Lives of the Crystal Ballroom,, 1997. McMenamins now owns the Crystal Ballroom. "Blue Cheer was the epitome of San Francisco psychedelia." of characterized the group as "the single most powerful band I've ever seen" and defined them as "probably the originators of heavy metal". Blue Cheer influenced such late 1970s bands as Hungarian psychedelic hardcore band Galloping Coroners.

Blue Cheer was also widely recognized as the loudest band ever at the time when they emerged. Billy Altman reported that at a 1968 concert the band was "So loud, in fact, that within just a few songs, much of the crowd in the front orchestra section was fleeing."

Various artists in the movement have paid homage to Blue Cheer, including vocalist and vocalist , who said; "Hearing Blue Cheer while was almost as important to me as hearing the Stooges for the first time the year before. When Mudhoney started up, Blue Cheer was definitely part of our blueprint.”

"Blue Cheer" was the name of a variety of LSD made by chemist and patron , and the band was probably named after that, although the name existed earlier, as the name of a laundry detergent, after which the LSD variety itself was named.
