"In A Gadda Da Vida" - "Iron Butterfly" Arrow Classic Rock Festival Netherlands 2004 Ron Bushy drums, Lee Dorman bass, Larry Rust Keyboards, Charlie Marinkovich guitar Writer Doug Ingle - Iron Butterfly BMI
64 year old drummer does a 3 1/2 minute drum solo and not a drop of sweat on his head or face. I remember when the song first came out. An all time favorite.
Saw them in Salt Lake City where I grew up. Smoked a doob in the building hiding and inhaling frequently and loved every minute of this song always. Bless there hearts for giving us this great song that shall live on forever ❤😊
In 1968 I was in the 4th grade, my class had a birthday party for me. My teacher, Mrs. Goseco said I could play any music I wanted on her record player, I brought in my Iron Butterfly album and had her play all 17:01 minutes of In A Gadda Da Vida. She smiled. She looked at me differently after that.
In high school I had a , get this, a Lido Supreme drum kit. I learned this solo after months of practicing. On a cheap 5 piece kit I pulled it off at a high school dance. I’ll never forget the applause at the end. One of those moments that really paid off.
I remember hearing this song when I was small. I am speechless when I listen to it now. It is just so magnetic and awesome. These are the greatest men in the music world that I respect the most. Just beautiful music. Amazing. God bless them and their families.
It was probably a signal from God to let these beautiful people hear such a Godly song performed by these wonderful ( 1st psychedelical ) group Band. May the Good Lord receive those that have departed to be by his side!!!. Greetings. Maintain your self healthy. Bell, California, at 9:38 am. ... 9/17/2020.

Anyone that knows about this song and has listen to it thru and thru YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE MY FRIEND, THE OTHER SIDE, THE ETERNAL AND THE SUBLIME. YOU ARE THE IMMORTAL GODS THAT STAND IN THE COSMOS AND IN THE ETERNAL FOREVER AND EVER.
Saw them in 1970 along with Led Zepplin, Iron Butterfly, Chillowack, and many others in a full afternoon and night concert. I'll remember that till I die.
Although this track suffers somewhat from overfamiliarity, it can't be denied this was a very adventurous piece of music for its time, and remains a classic ; nice to hear once a year and soak up those atmospheric 1968 days again..
I was in junior high school when this first hit the radio airwaves, but it was the short version. When I heard the complete long version, I was blown away.
Ya I am 70 now When this song first launched in 60-70's ..I was in Hongkong.. This a quite progressive advanced song A Physchedelic style Especially the Extended version Which is pioneer at that era Good music good band Still like to enjoy this legendary performance Regards from Indonesia❤
What a band all true musicians of our time,I was sixteen when I bought this album,and in the early 70s I put two big speakers in my car playing this tune at partys
On the one hand, the song is nothing without Doug’s signature baritone. On the other hand, I saw the video of a 1995 SF show with Ingle back in the fold and it was kinda depressing to watch how way past their prime these guys were even in the mid-nineties. So I can see how Bushey wanted to continue to play out with some new blood standing in. Hate to say it, but Iron Butterfly should’ve stayed disbanded after 1971. I wouldn’t want to tarnish my band’s legacy to that of a nostalgia act. But it’s cool that they have fans still showing up to see them after all these years so that’s just me.
The first live rock concert I ever saw was in 1967 at Upsala College in New Jersey--main act Jefferson Airplane, opening act Iron Butterfly playing an unforgettably rousing and robust In a Gadda Da Vida. Bought their first LP (long playing, 33 rpm) album, which had a psychedelic cover art butterfly motif. IB still play and sing great.
Cuando yo era niño un vecino que tuve ponia una estación de radio donde prográmaban este tipo de musica, casí todos los días muy temprano. A mi madre la tenía harta y yo estaba encantado con tantas buenas canciones que me atraparon. Y esta fue una de tantas bandas que descubrí gracias a un buen vecino y su estación de radio.
Wo Amigo, que hubiera dado yo! Por haber estado en ésos años y poder haber comprado ése (LP ) y después haberlo grabado en un CD, O UN DVD " ME GUSTA MUCHO LA MÚSICA 🎶Y MÚSICOS DE ÉSOS AÑOS INOLVIDABLES " LOS ESCUCHABAN DOS DE MIS HNOS. QUE YA R.I.P. PERO QUE GRUPASOS DE ROCK DE VERDAD 👍👏😍INIGUALABLES A LOS DE HOY EN DÍA FELICIDADES 👏😉😊👍🙌
MAN this brings back old memories=====================WE played this at a dance and got a standing ovation !!!!-=======I played slap bass during the drum solo
Legendary tale of the group missing their shot at Woodstock because of a foul-up in planning the helicopter transport by their manager. Most fans worldwide never got to see this group live in concert.
I saw these guys at a bar in Augusta GA. It was my 21st birthday 1982. Croud wanted an encore so they played this twice! Very drunk that night and a shuffle broke out between the band and the crowd....I was right in the middle buying drinks for the band 🙃 lol
This album was my introduction to psychedelic rock back in 1970. I got a copy from my 2nd cousin, who at the time had an album collection that would rival most record stores, inside the sleeve was not only this record but Cream's Disraeli Gears. A solid double shot, I was hooked!
@@vernhoke7730 like I said my neighbor was in a rock band he played guitar,I was listening to them practice he said you should get the album,he could play the guitar part,but the band had no organ player
Thankyou. I luv that song so much. Laughed so hard when I heard the song was supposed to be In the Garden of Eve. They were high and came out good da Vida. LOL. I luv the band. Yay. Glad to see there still around. I hope with Luv Happy Dazer Dawn
Als ich in s Gadda da Vida das erst mal hörte glaube 1972 war ich wie benommen und😅, gleich die Langfassung. Mein ganzes Leben hat mich dieses Werk begleitet. Bin jetzt 66.
Je suis votre aîné de 5 ans et je garde toujours cette chanson ainsi que celle du groupe ''RARE EARTH avec le fameux titre de GET READY '' la belle époque.
@@ayoubaidaas9530 Grüße zurück, Rere Earth mit Get Ready kenne ich natürlich auch, Schön das es noch Leute gibt die die gute Musik aus den 70ern kennen und lieben.
Iron Butterfly was never underrated. A string of great songs many with a message; "You Just Can't Win", "Real Fright". Great hooks in their songs such as this one, and 'Soul Experience". Metamorphosis was the very first time a "Talk Box" popularized by Peter Frampton was recorded. Mike Pinera, later of Blues Image, was the first person to use one. Bear in mind that very successful groups have a run for about 4 to 5 years and then they fizzle out as musical styles and tastes change with the new generation.
Grew up listening to this -what's even more interesting is that my cousin Larry Rust toured with them and is actually the one who is singing in this particular vid. Thanks for sharing.
When I was learning to play drums you had to know how to do three things Wipeout Born to be wild and at least the first half of the drum solo for this song or you were not considered a decent player I love this music thank you
DEMAISSSSSSSS!!!!! Quem teve o privilégio de conhecer essa e, outras bandas dessa época, sempre será feliz!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Aplausos, sempre e, sempre!!!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷✌✌🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
