Butterfly are a favorite of mine, and I consider them one of the first metal bands. Anybody else like them beyond 'in-a-gadda-da-vida'?

I like Iron Butterfly. I only have "In-a-gadda-da-vida" and "Light and Heavy: The Best of..." I also have a weird vhs tape called In-a-gadda-da-vida and it has three videos on it for the title track and live renditions of Easy Rider and Butterfly Bleu. Light and Heavy though is fantastic, Soilder in Our Town, Easy Rider and Stone Believer are just some of my favs off of that disc. Great band I would love to explore them more.

That was the song that got me into them, but they really do have a lot of great stuff.

They could be a little cute, but when they played Doors type stuff (but heavier) they were great. Light & Heavy is a good sample. The two mid 70's albums are horrible though,with Eric trying to sing.

I loved the 70's albums. I agree Eric wasn't a good replacement for Doug Ingle, but I think both Scorching Beauty and Sun and steel were extremely underrated albums.

Also, I heard that they're gonna put out a new one pretty soon. 30 years in the making, so I expect it to be good. very happy
