Trigger Warning: This article contains references to an individual’s death.


Doug Ingle, co-founder and lead singer of the heavy rock band Iron Butterfly, died at the age of 78, as per Variety. Ingle, who also served as the band's organist, was the last surviving member of the classic lineup from the late 1960s. His family announced his death on social media but did not reveal the cause.

"It’s with a heavy heart & great sadness to announce the passing of my Father Doug Ingle," posted Doug Ingle Jr. He shared, "Dad passed away peacefully this evening in the presence of family. Thank You Dad for being a father, teacher, and friend. Cherished loving memories I will carry the rest of my days moving forward in this journey of life. Love you Dad."

Early life and formation of Iron Butterfly

Doug Ingle formed Iron Butterfly in San Diego in 1966. The band quickly gained popularity with their 1968 sophomore album, In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, which included the hit single of the same name. The 17-minute track became a staple on FM radio, helping the album spend 81 weeks in the top ten in the United States. For a time, it was the best-selling album in Atlantic Records history, and it was later certified quadruple platinum.

"In a Gadda da Davida" - yes I remember that song well.

True story -- a group of us had just left a gathering and got into an old '57 Chevy that had been restored.  That was our ride home. Playing on the radio or perhaps an 8 track was the song "In a Gadda da Davida"....then....crash...our car hit another car at an intersection.  I remember feeling the impact, the car being airborne hitting a streetlight, rolling over and spinning.  We all climbed out of the car. Some of us had a few scratches from broken glass but luckily no one was seriously injured.  The driver was absolutely besides himself as he had spent countless hours restoring the car.

I kept one of the hubcaps as a souvenir (I was 16) and it was lost after time and several moves.  Thankfully, it was one tough Chevy!

So, anytime I hear that song (long version), that's what I remember.

Never really cared for the song...but to be cool you had to adore it...especially the long version, with the unending drum solo.

It's overall a very rotten song with one of the most memorable riffs ever recorded.
The riff was replayed in untold numbers of tv shows and movies.
But if I had the choice of either listening to the song for an hour or having someone drill a six inch spike into my brain, I might choose the latter.
