"In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" by the ground-breaking Iron Butterfly came to mind because of a personal connection. The original seventeen-minute-and-two-second-long version is still famous the world over. Iron Butterfly even inspired the name of Led Zeppelin.
My friend and colleague was Philip Taylor Kramer, who I worked with and helped start "FACET," the first nonprofit to connect schools digitally. "Taylor," as I knew him, joined Iron Butterfly when it reformed in 1974 as their new bassist, and was close with Ron Bushy, drummer for the original band. Taylor maintained there was no truth to the common story that the title was meant to be "In the Garden of Eden." The story of Taylor's disappearance is a much bigger mystery. Links. TMMI.
