54 years old and it still is the best psychedelic song/drum solo that when you close your eyes and listen to it,pulls you into another world and time...
Yes drum solo is epic, but the guitar and keyboard solos with the Bass makes this tune phenomenal. Not to mention, I've seen it while on shrooms. Its a friggin trip
Hard to say Iron Butterfly founded anything, given the bands that came before them. I would cite Cream as a hard rock band that existed before the Butterfly.
Well I'm older to but sure don't look it. Maybe it's because I kept the booze and drugs pretty light cause I did party a lot but always liked to keep my wit's about me.. ❤️✌️
I usually don't care for drum solos, but the one on this song is great. The guitarist was only 17 when this was recorded, I think. He was a concert violinist at the age of seven.
I have slight guilt : when I was 18, I made my GF promise to kiss me for the length of ONE song. She agreed. This is the song I chose, I ain't stooopid...lmao !
Just introduced my daughter to this a couple months ago. She flipped out. Loved it. She is 42 and listens to it. She wanted to hear more of MY music…lol… solos…yes
The drummer's name is Ron Bushy. The lead guitarist is Erik Brain. He was only 17 when this song was released and, I believe recently passed away. Lee Dormant plays bass guitar and Doug Ingle on the organ.
Wow, brings back so many memories. I was in high school when this came out. True psychedelic rock! People were smoking pot, maybe dropping a little acid? The sixties have often been referred to as a crack in time and Iron Butterfly was there to be part of it! Loved it Adogg.
Another epic drum solo is Santana, Soul Sacrifice at Woodstock, but HAS to be the long version for the drum solo. Incredible. So glad you did the long version of this! Great reaction!
I was extremely fortunate and grateful to have had 4 older brothers who loved this type of music and when I turned 8 in 1973, my one older brother took me to see Pink Floyd do Dark Side of the Moon and also introduced me to Iron Butterfly.
You might find it interesting to know that Eric Braun, the lead guitarist, was only 17 years old when they recorded this. Also, Ron Bushy, the drummer, was such a heavy drummer that he broke most drum heads, so he developed his own that were produced by Remo, known as the Bushy Emperor heads.
I'm glad you went with the long version. There is a shortened version that sometimes airs on radio, but it doesn't give listeners the chance to appreciate the amazing talent in this band. This song, in particular, is one of the few songs that allows everyone a chance demonstrate their skills and the world is better for it. Keep doing what you do.
Great reaction to an iconic song. Glad you liked it so much. React to the video of Traffic playing “The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys(Live 1972)”. This is another iconic song from that era, equally as good as this one. Enjoy!
My sister was 8 years older than me and we shared a room. I got to start experiencing great music at a very young age in the 60’s and was blessed to be a teen through most of the 70’s and on and on through the decades.. Perhaps now you can understand why some of us boomers had trouble adjusting to rap, although I’ve come to like some of it.. I love your reactions, your smile is contagious and seeing you experiencing great music warms my heart.. Ty
Love Iron Butterfly. This song is what they're most known for but they are so much more. Listen to "Time of Our Lives" and "Soul Experience" on the Ball album...so friggin good!
When Doug Ingle wrote this song he was plastered on a gallon of wine. The title was suppose to be "In The Garden of Edan", but when the band listened to him singing the song they could not understand what he was saying so it ended up with the lyrics as you see here.
David Mann did a movie called “Man Hunter “ it has the origin story of Hannibal Lecter in it… yes a prequel to the Silence of the lambs! In the Man Hunter movie this song is used during the climatic scene of the detective battling the bad guy. It’s intense!
Doug Ingle on keyboard and vocals, Ron Bushy on drums, Lee Dorman on bass and Erik Brann on guitar. I can't believe no one else answered you. This band was pretty bomb...saw 'em live WAY back. Outstanding, to say the least.
OMG...the warped memories, cuz this song needed a nice hit of acid to REALLY appreciate it ! lmao ! Cool note: he was wasted on acid...Inna Gada da Vida was supposed to be ' In the garden of Eden " lmao ! ( you gotta be old to know these things, youngster....lololol ! )
I was 15 when this song came out, right in the middle of peace, love, flower children, pot, hippies, Vietnam war, draft dodgers. It really made an impression on me, and I bought the album (and still have it). Especially the iconic drum solo. I played air guitar and air drums to this song thousands of times in those days. Thank you for reacting to it. You made my day!
Iron = heavy Butterfly = light n floaty First real concert I ever attended in 1968. They performed at the ASU Activity Center. The drummer did extended solo. Butterfly Bleu is a minute longer. And has the same elements but with a Twist. They were the first band to introduce everybody to a talkbox. Although technically Aveeno Ray develop the talk box 1939. You can watch that music video of Alveeno Rey and the St Louis Blues performing with stringy the guitar puppet. His talkbox was used in conjunction with a slide guitar.😊 🚜🤠🐂
One of the original acid rock groups. Ina Gadda Da Vida was named after one of the group came up with "in the garden of eden". They were binge partying and what Doug Ingle, the keyboard player/ lead singer, heard came to be the songs name. Now you know why "stoners" didn't get off their butts. They were blown away by the music. The good old days, everybody got a solo.
This is a song you can't ever forget. And everyone has their turn for a solo. One of my favorite songs ever and wow great memories. Great song while fooling around. Classic
I graduated high school in 98, and my senior year, we did this song in marching band, and I was in percussion, and I absolutely love the drum solo, so many great memories
Thanks ADogg. Man I knew you would love this. You are pure and utter joy. You don't overanalyze the songs you just enjoy. This was 17 minutes of pure bliss watching you watch this and enjoying 💯💯💯💯
I have long been an Iron Butterfly fan. Lead Zeppelin was once there opening act. Going deeper into there album the flip side was just as good. I would put there album into my four track tape player and go cruising in my 69 ford farlaine. This would have been in 1969, I was 18 years old.
The guitarist here is Erik Brann (also spelled Braun). who was 17 at the time. Drummer - Ron Bushy, keyboards - Doug Ingle, bass - Lee Dorman. For another killer drum solo (Ginger Baker from Cream), listen to Blind Faith - guitar by Eric Clapton, keyboards by Steve Winwood, and bass by Ric Grech. A supergroup of legends from 1969 - Everyone gets an extended solo: ua-cam.com/video/u2IpqvvlT24/v-deo.html
Doug Ingle the organ player was the lead singer here, Ron Bushy on drums, Lee Dorman on bass, and a then 17 yr. old Erik Brann on guitar. This song and album came out in June 1968 when flower power psychedelia was on the way out, replaced by harder edged acid/hard rock and the first stirrings of country-rock which would take LA by storm in the early-70's. This song was a compromise between psychedelia and hard rock. As of Oct 2022, Only Doug Ingle at 77 yrs. old is still alive among the original musicians on this song.
Maybe. Now that you've played this, you'll check out "Soul Experience", or "In the Crowds".Or "Time of our Lives", Or "Metamorphthis" band has some fantastic songs. Please play more
When this came out I was 8 years old. My next door neighbor who was 18 years old was babysitting me and my sister. He played this so loud on my parents stereo. This song terrified my ass. Years later when I was about 22. I saw these guys in a bar. During the break I told them this story. We drank with them the rest of the night.
I was 13, living in Hawaii, my Dad was in the Air Force, when this came out! I remember calling the local radio station and asking the dj the name of the song, he broke it down and that is how I learned to pronounce it! Then me and some buddies went to the record store and bought it! Great react!
Doug Ingle wrote the song & did the vocals & all the keyboard work !! Get this! He only wrote one song in his entire life & that was it!! They are all gone now, except Doug Ingle is still alive! was recorded in May 1968 & to think about: They did not have all the tech stuff, they probably only had 2-4 track recording?! that's how good the band was & the mixing & production!! unreal for that time period. !!
An early episode of The Simpsons had Bart pranking the elderly church organist into playing this, and at one point everyone in the pews was holding a lighter. The organist fainted after she finished.
Rob Bushy is the drummer. Not only did he play one the best drum solos in history but my man kept the beat through all 17 minutes. Just freaking amazing. Rob died just recently at age 79, hopefully he's drumming for the Lord in heaven.
I bought this when it came out. Doug Ingle on keyboards and vocals, Erik Braun guitars, Lee Dorman on bass and Ron Bushy on drums. Sadly all the original members are deceased. What a band.
Song was intended to be called In the garden of Eden. But getting to high can slur your words. My 2 favorite drum solo's this one and drum duo Frankenstein Edgar Winter Group. This song gave everyone a solo.
when I was in high school a local band played a lot of high school dances. They did this song to perfection. When they got to the drum solo all of the other members of the band would walk off stage and socialize with the crowd. The drummer Gary Marquise would usually do the solo for about 10 minutes. One night at my high school the other band members lost track of time and Mark ended up doing almost a 20 minute solo. If Ron Bushy (Iron Butterfly's drummer) had heard Mark play that night he probably would have congratulated him. I am surprise Iron Butterfly didn't have more success. They were all great musicians.
Members of band: Mike Pinera. Guitars. Ron Bushy. Drums. Doug Ingle. Vocals, Keyboards. Erik Brann. Guitars. Iron Butterfly. Larry "Rhino" Reinhardt. Guitars. Lee Dorman. Bass.
True story the original name of this song was supposed to be in the Garden of Eden he was so drunk when someone asked him what the name was he said inagodadavida it stuck
Thank you for playing this. Seeing you hearing this for the first time brings back the feeling I had the first time I heard it. What an amazing journey this song takes you on!
IRON BUTTERFLY, "INAGADDADAVITA" translation "IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN" The ultimate PSYCHODELIC ROCK from 1968... I use to shoot hoops in the middle of Winter, Listening to this JAM...GROWING UP IN HIGHSCHOOL IN THE 70'S WAS A TRIP...
In 1968 I was getting out of the Navy after 4 years of duty and 22 years old. This was big all over! All the little local bands were trying to do that drum solo. Thanks for letting me feel 22 again!
54 years old and it still is the best psychedelic song/drum solo that when you close your eyes and listen to it,pulls you into another world and time...
Possibly the Greatest drum solo Ever recorded!
Yupp 👍
Yes drum solo is epic, but the guitar and keyboard solos with the Bass makes this tune phenomenal. Not to mention, I've seen it while on shrooms. Its a friggin trip
The fact that this is over 50 years old and still sounds fresh as Hell is a tribute to it's greatness!
So very true. In the garden of eden...anyone anyone??
Amen
They were pretty much the founders of hard rock. I saw them live in concert in 1969😊 yes, I’m old.
OLDER....not old. It tends to last longer that way. I'm a female 70 yr. old and I still act like 12. (on going joke w/ my male friend and I ) June
Hard to say Iron Butterfly founded anything, given the bands that came before them. I would cite Cream as a hard rock band that existed before the Butterfly.
Not "Old" - WISE & Brilliantly Aged!!
Guess that makes me old too!
Well I'm older to but sure don't look it. Maybe it's because I kept the booze and drugs pretty light cause I did party a lot but always liked to keep my wit's about me.. ❤️✌️
I usually don't care for drum solos, but the one on this song is great.

LOL! Love your spirit
King sht

No
Smart man. Free bird another good one.
We loved black lights, strobe lights, psychedelic posters and loud Innagadadavida
and gotta have the incense!!! LOL
Just introduced my daughter to this a couple months ago. She flipped out. Loved it. She is 42 and listens to it. She wanted to hear more of MY music…lol… solos…yes
Oh, man! the psychedelic 60's ! So happy I was a young teen during the evolution and transformation of music (and our culture) during the 1960's !
We had THE BEST MUSIC ERA..HANDS DOWN. Nothing has come close since
The song was supposed to say In The Garden of Eden but he was really loaded lol. Good stuff back then…🖖🏻🇨🇦🥀🌹😊
The drummer's name is Ron Bushy. The lead guitarist is Erik Brain. He was only 17 when this song was released and, I believe recently passed away. Lee Dormant plays bass guitar and Doug Ingle on the organ.
Eric Brann.
Wow, brings back so many memories. I was in high school when this came out. True psychedelic rock! People were smoking pot, maybe dropping a little acid? The sixties have often been referred to as a crack in time and Iron Butterfly was there to be part of it! Loved it Adogg.
I smoked some good shit listening to this song
@@clare1061 Amen to that!
I WAS 20 and in nam
@@billhiggins1882 Thank you for your service and God bless you.
We used to dance to this song in high school in 1968. Love it.
Erik Brann - guitar, Ron Bushy - drums, Lee Dorman - bass guitar, Doug Ingle - Vox Continental organ, vocals
Another epic drum solo is Santana, Soul Sacrifice at Woodstock, but HAS to be the long version for the drum solo. Incredible.
So glad you did the long version of this! Great reaction!
A short tho no lesser drum solo is on "Wipe Out" by the Surfaris: ua-cam.com/video/p13yZAjhU0M/v-deo.html

I was extremely fortunate and grateful to have had 4 older brothers who loved this type of music and when I turned 8 in 1973, my one older brother took me to see Pink Floyd do Dark Side of the Moon and also introduced me to Iron Butterfly.
Back again, they played my school dance in the 7th grade Bakersfield, Ca.. The drummer fell over sideways. What a night tho'!!!!

Wow, 60s Memories, Drugs and Rock in Roll.
Damn, I Survived.
And had a Marvelous Time.

Heard this song for the first time when I was 13 years old. I'm 65 now, and that drum solo still makes me smile!
Love Iron Butterfly. This song is what they're most known for but they are so much more. Listen to "Time of Our Lives" and "Soul Experience" on the Ball album...so friggin good!
oh don't forget "Flowers and Beads" ! truly was a different time!

Acid Rock baby! I was a young teen when this came out and let me tell you, their hair and this music scared the adults out of their minds! LOL LOL
If I recall (was a long time ago) the guitarist was just 17yrs old at the time.
This was drummer Ron Bushy on the drum solo. It is truly one of the all time great Rock-n-Roll jamming tunes.
David Mann did a movie called “Man Hunter “ it has the origin story of Hannibal Lecter in it… yes a prequel to the Silence of the lambs!
In the Man Hunter movie this song is used during the climatic scene of the detective battling the bad guy.
It’s intense!
The original Heavy Metal band. This blew us away back in ‘68. And for the next few years every garage band had a drum solo in their act.✌️❤️🎶
Doug Ingle on keyboard and vocals, Ron Bushy on drums, Lee Dorman on bass and Erik Brann on guitar. I can't believe no one else answered you. This band was pretty bomb...saw 'em live WAY back. Outstanding, to say the least.
This was THE drumsolo of the 60’s.
Everybody knew this solo
Haven't heard this in years... We would sit in our rooms and play air drums with this... One of those special albums
OMG...the warped memories, cuz this song needed a nice hit of acid to REALLY appreciate it ! lmao ! Cool note: he was wasted on acid...Inna Gada da Vida was supposed to be ' In the garden of Eden " lmao ! ( you gotta be old to know these things, youngster....lololol ! )
RON BUSHY: "He had drank a gallon of Red Mountain wine. He was so DRUNK, when I asked him what the name was he slurred I G D V..."
It sure did. I was an acid head back in those days.

OMG the memories. THANK YOU and I am so glad you listened to the entire version. I hate when they cut if off in the middle
I especially hate it when the radio station does it.
This song is what started metal music. It's a masterpiece
I have enjoyed this song seriously hundreds of times.
Erik Brann on guitar. Look how young he is in the video. He was just 17 when this was made.

This was the song that got me into rock and metal. Snuck my dads 8 track and was on a new life journey.
This is a song you can't ever forget. And everyone has their turn for a solo. One of my favorite songs ever and wow great memories. Great song while fooling around. Classic
One of the longest recorded songs of the year I remember my uncle sharing this song with me on record I was probably 9 or 10 years old
After all these years it's still fresh and epic! Always was ideal music for psychedelics for countless people.....
I remember loved this song. I remember a sweet boy that liked me, got the album for me. That was a great gift in that time
So sweet!
Think about this. 1968. Dr King killed, Bobby Kennedy killed. Elvis did his comeback show and Iron Butterfly does this. AM radio was on FIRE!
I graduated high school in 98, and my senior year, we did this song in marching band, and I was in percussion, and I absolutely love the drum solo, so many great memories
I read he used to extend that drum solo to 30 minutes in concerts. Damn.
WOW, I was 15 when this came out, haven't heard it in a long time. Still love it!
Thanks ADogg. Man I knew you would love this. You are pure and utter joy. You don't overanalyze the songs you just enjoy. This was 17 minutes of pure bliss watching you watch this and enjoying 💯💯💯💯
Concur.
This is my first time seeing Adogg. I might be at risk of becoming a fan.🙂
After hearing this on another reaction video I listened to zircon Butterfly’s first album, “Heavy.” Holy shit!!! Amazing.
I love watching Ron Bushy play that drum solo, you can tell he's really getting into it! 🖖🥁🪘
Ron was awesome
Duke Ellington's Caravan, on acid, complete with heavy water light show.

Loved when the radio played the long version on radio, could go from one end of Detroit to the other and even cross into Canada listening to it.
Lol joking Detroit bigger than that…
Erik was the 17 year old prodigy lead guitarist at the time of this recording
I was 9 yesterday old when this came out. 60s and 70s had the best music ever.

That made me giggle.
I guess when several fans suggested you react to this classic, they all failed to mention just how long it is! lol Definitely a blast from the past!

It's a religious song also known as "In The Garden of Eden" "Inagodadavida" is how you say it when you had one too many to drink or whatever
Saw them in concert while in college ! The 18 minute live version was EPIC!🤣
My brother and I used to drive our parents crazy playing this song over and over.
It is a mind blowing song experience
Rob Bushy is the drummer. Not only did he play one the best drum solos in history but my man kept the beat through all 17 minutes. Just freaking amazing. Rob died just recently at age 79, hopefully he's drumming for the Lord in heaven.
Ron Bushy. But you’re absolutely right about the rest!
Amen
@@dongrant5827 Lol I always thought his name was Rob for some reason. Thanks for the correction Don!
As someone who grew up listening to hard rock/heavy metal. This had always been by far my favorite drum solo!
Watch Ron Bushy playing here, then watch The Muppets character Animal , Ron's style had to be the inspiration for Animal .
Douglas Lloyd Ingle I remember when this was released
I was working a Squire Shop warehouse sale (1969) and they blasted this over the PA system!
This is a sort of lost classic which is ironic considering how huge it was in it's day
I bought this when it came out. Doug Ingle on keyboards and vocals, Erik Braun guitars, Lee Dorman on bass and Ron Bushy on drums. Sadly all the original members are deceased. What a band.
First time hearing the whole song...awesome!!!!!! I was like maybe 15 when this came out.
Song was intended to be called In the garden of Eden. But getting to high can slur your words. My 2 favorite drum solo's this one and drum duo Frankenstein Edgar Winter Group. This song gave everyone a solo.
This song makes me feel like I am entering a haunted house. Love it❤
Say Adog the guitarist is only 17 he is great...
Good pick Adogg. Listened to this many times on acid when I was 17, just before being drafted for Vietnam: which was another kind of trip!
At about the 13:50 minute mark the organist is mixing in God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
OMG
You're right.
I never noticed that before.
when I was in high school a local band played a lot of high school dances. They did this song to perfection.
