Description

Limited edition 180gm vinyl LP pressing. The Los Angeles music climate of the late-60s and '70s was characterized by the heavy sounds and sentiments that reflected the revolutionary attitudes of the generation. Bursting onto that scene was Iron Butterfly, whose sound not only epitomized the hard attitudes of the youth with it's heavy drumming and bass lines, but also embraced more delicate aspirations through it's intricate guitar and keyboard overlays. 1970's Top 20 charting Iron Butterfly Live marked the band's first concert album and the last to be recorded by the longstanding quartet of Doug Ingle (lead vocals/organ), Erik Brann (guitar), Lee Dorman (bass) and Ron Bushy (drums). Anchored by a thundering 20-minute version of the iconic "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida," the explosive six-track slab is a wonderful showcase of what Iron Butterfly does best!
