Details: Amazon.ca Iron Butterfly's 1968 album heralded the emergence of a new genre, hard rock, primarily through its thunderous title track. Written, reportedly, by stoned and unable-to-articulate vocalist/keyboardist Doug Ingle from its original title ("In the Garden of Eden"), the song felt like a veritable parody of the psychedelic excesses of the era. Theatrical vocals, repetitive riffs, endless solos, this seventeen-minute monster has them all. With the help of FM DJs who loved to program it all to justify well-deserved breaks, this title became a must-have hit, an anthem for its time. --Billy Altman
