RIP Ron Bushy, passed away from cancer August 29th, 2021 at 79 years old. The original drum solo architect. Remember folks, Led Zeppelin opened for THEM in 1969! Before anyone heard of John Bonham and Bonzo's legendary drum solos, there was Ron Bushy.
Man I'm 20 years old, I was decades away from being born when this song came out, I was just so lucky to have parents who introduced me the the best generation of musicians like Iron Butterfly, Black Sabbath, King Crimson, Iron Maiden, nobody makes music like these guys anymore, they knew how to do it
RIP Doug Ingle who passed away last Friday (5-24-24). Lead singer and keyboardist of Iron Butterfly. Doug wrote In A Gadda Da Vida. The lineup on this version of the song is the lineup I saw at the first concert I ever attended in my lifetime of seeing the greatest bands in the world ever since I was only 13. Obviously Iron Butterfly had an impact on me and shaped how I hear music. The only member still living is guitarist Mike Pinera and I am told he has been in a hospital fighting for his life quite some time now.
When my brother got home from Viet Nam, he walked up our long horseshoe driveway carrying his army bag. He played this song for months. Miss you Dave❤️
WOW! I’m 74 and this is the first time I saw this live version. It feels like 60 years ago. It never gets old. I’m glad I grew up in the 60s. Would love to have a back again.
At 79 y/o I still remember hearing this song when it was released for the first time.....I couldn't believe the sounds I was hearing in it's arrangement. So different, so strangely compelling at the same time. One of the true classics of the late sixties and early seventies. There was no better time to be a young and witness the great music that came from this era.
I am 80. I saw Iron Butterfly at the San Diego Sports Arena when Ron passed out from the heat but he cane back and continued to play. That man was a LEGEND....
Another 68yr old Iron Butterfly fan here just sitting back and letting this phenomenal song wave over me. To play the drums, mostly with your eyes shut, just adds to the respect due to him. Bring back the 60’s.
YA NO HAY GRUPOS COMO IRON BUTERFLY, ESTA ERA BUENA MÚSICA FUE UNA ÉPOCA DORADA DE LA HISTORIA DE LA MÚSICA ROCK, Y POP EVOLUCIONANDO EL BLUES, FUIMOS AFORTUNADOS LOS QUE NOS TOCÓ VIVIR ESE TIEMPO, HOY HAY MUCHA TECNOLOGÍA PERO POCO TALENTO. NIEGENMELO????
The polyphonic organ solo sounds SOOOOOOO much better with a Hammond & a Leslie! Bravo & well done Mr. Ingle. You were one of my strongest & earliest mentors in music. You are dearly missed. RIP, man. You were so original.

Goodbye Doug Ingle. One of the greatest rock organist I've ever heard. Be in peace, my friend. 5-24-24😢
WITH OUT A DOUBT IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, THE GREATEST PSYCHEDELIC SONG OF THE 1960S, PERIOD.
i played this song on cardboard boxes and a garbage can lid for high hat and a Charles potato chip can for snare
Lee Dorman inspired me to be a better bassist. RIP!
