Metamorphosis is one of the greatest rock albums of all time. If you haven't heard it, do yourself a favor and try it out. The addition of Pinera and Rhino brought the band to a new level of excellence. After all of these years, it still sounds fresh and innovative. Shortly after its release the band broke up and Lee Dorman and Larry Rhineheart formed the band Captain Beyond and recorded their brilliant debut album, also very worth checking out.
My young son and I had the pleasure of accidentally meeting Ron Bushy and his dad at a Chinese buffet restaurant in Corona California. We sat there eating Chinese food, and for some reason one of the two men in the next booth to us looked familiar. As they got up to leave they walked past our booth and I asked, "excuse me, but is your name Ron?" He said yes, I asked if he was a musician, he said yes. I said "drummer for Iron Butterfly?" He said YES, anyway we chatted for 10 minutes with Ron his elderly dad that day. Ron was pleasant and talkative, his dad was wearing a blue Navy baseball cap. We discussed San Diego, drumming, and fame. I have terrific memories of our random encounter with drummer Ron Bushy👍
Very Cool! In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, was the first alum I ever bought. As a young teenage drummer, Bushy's solid drumming influenced me greatly.
I still have Heavy, In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, and Ball, on original vinyl that I bought new as a teenager. I was always a fan.
R.I.P. Doug Ingle...the last butterfly
The drum solo was not that complicated critics failed to realize it fit the song perfectly it was part of the song i couldn't imagine any other drum solo in it's place i believe that's why In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida was so successful sometimes less is more.,. RIP Ron
RIP Ron & all original members! Saw them on their first USA tour in KC. Stood with elbows resting on the stage right in front of their 17 yr old guitarist Eric. It was a blast, with him & the bass player playfully punching each other in the arms throughout the show. My first big concert branded into my memory forever! So grateful!
My dad introduced me to this band when I got into hard rock and metal as a kid. He said it's nothing new. This was metal in the 60s
I was fortunate to have seen Iron Butterfly with the original 5 members, not long after their first album was released. The show was on the Sunset Strip. I don't recall the name of the venue. My future wife & I really enjoyed watching Daryl DeLoach work the tambourine.
I was at the Newport Pop Festival & the band was stellar! The Chambers Brothers also went down a storm. Sony & Cher got booed during their intro! Were parts of the video AI generated? It also sounded like his voice was AI also. It does make the dialog more interesting to listen to with imagery even though at times it is a bit far fetched.
Metamorphosis is a great album…Stone Believer and Easy Rider are on quite a few playlists I’ve made. They’re filmed live in Denmark (?) and do a few songs from Metamorphosis and are outstanding. Mike Pinera kicks ass!
During the heyday of Butterfly I was into Hendrix & Mountain.
Heavy really influenced me and I was thirsting for hard rock and it gave me that. I never liked in a gada da vida and never heard any of the other music but will have to check out metamorphisis, Great to know the story. Thanks.
Ah, the memories of L.A. in the 1960's
The music at the very end is really beautiful. Can anyone tell me where that is from? April 4, 1970 my first rock concert, I was 15. iron Butterfly, James Gang, Blues Image RIP, all of the four who made that second album.
Why not just buy a microphone? This sounds terrible
I could not listen to this with the background noise. TERRIBLE!
Thank you Ron....appreciated by the Butterfly Army😅
Inna-Gadda-Da-Vida, the ONLY drum solo that I ever loved! (...and I am a drummer) 👍😎👍
Funny how they played on the same bill with Led Zeppelin.
