Iron butterfly influence of heavy metal needs to be in hof Posted by Lawrence Wallace on Wednesday, 12/13/2017 @ 10:21am |
Not gonna happen, but I wouldn’t be surprised if “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida” gets a “backdoor” induction in the future cause that song provided a dramatic sound that led the way towards the development of hard rock and metal. Posted by The Dude on Saturday, 06/2/2018 @ 11:58am |
This is a lock for that new "Songs" category. Posted by FHD on Tuesday, 07/9/2019 @ 02:47am |
Should iron butterfly be in the Hall of Fame? I for one say yes. I grew up listening to them I saw them live in Myrtle Beach on a little itty bitty stage. They were awesome. They're mostly remembered for that one 17 minute song but I remember them for the albums with that light psychedelic feel and just good songs. Albeit I'm not a critic just an old school hippie who love to listen to the music. But I think they should be in because they represent a Time and is that not what music's all about. When I think on those days and I think of music I think of iron butterfly,I think of Jimi Hendrix I think of all the great music from that most magical era in music. And I think that were they to be left out of the Hall of Fame it would be a stark omission. Posted by Robert Pearce on Monday, 07/19/2021 @ 15:47pm |
Rest in Peace Ron Bushy, 1941-2021. Posted by Joe on Sunday, 08/29/2021 @ 15:57pm |
If you listen closely to Iron Butterfly you realize what an incredible band they were. In-a-Gatta-da-Vida was a revolutionary song. Their influence was hugh. They should be in now while Doug Ingle the only remaining member is still alive. Posted by Carl Hardy on Friday, 01/7/2022 @ 10:34am |
Of course Iron Butterfly should be in the HOF! They practically created heavy metal. End of story. Posted by Gregg on Monday, 02/6/2023 @ 07:00am |
