They will forevermore be known for the 17-minute title track of this, their second album.\n\"In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida\" (a poke at singer\/organist Doug Ingle's gruff, John Kay-like delivery of \"In the Garden of Eden\") is built around one of the most memorable riffs of the '60s. It's filled out by long solos from all concerned, especially from drummer Ron Bushy, whose lengthy extemporizing provided the template for Big Rock Drum Solos for decades to come. The rest of the tunes reveal that Iron Butterfly did indeed possess some pop sensibility to leaven the heaviness; \"Flowers and Beads\" in particular is simultaneously a romantic '60s pop-rock ballad and a subtle but surprising swipe at flower power culture.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/25\/1990\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Iron Butterfly","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44563507282153,"sku":"TIY25G-35TD-00","price":11.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/Iron-Butterfly-IN-A-GADDA-DA-VIDA_5MEFG.jpg?v=1740686412","url":"https:\/\/www.vibinvinyl.com\/products\/iron-butterfly-in-a-gadda-da-vida","provider":"Vibin' Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
