Episode 82. Iron Butterfly & The Blues Magoos

There were two bands that made a significant commercial breakthrough in the late 1960's, one from the west coast and the other from the east coast. Iron Butterfly came from the Los Angeles area and quickly ascended to success with their second album, "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida". The album was the most successful in Atlantic Records history (pre-Led Zeppelin). The band became an influence on up-and-coming hard rock/heavy metal groups. The Blues Magoos came from The Bronx in New York. Their sound was gritty and also melodic and very psychedelic-induced. They had a Top 10 hit that gave them national exposure and they have been featured prominently in many garage rock compilations. They became an influence on Garage rock, Indie and New Wave bands in successive years. These are two bands that made an immediate impact on the nation's consciousness.Feel free to make a donation to the show through PayPal at  [email protected] If you would, please make a donation of love and hope to St. Jude Children's HospitalMake an impact on the lives of St. Jude kids - St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital (stjude.org)Also Other Items of Interest:Kathy Bushnell Website for Emily Muff bandHome | Kathy Bushnell | Em & MooListen to previous shows at the main webpage at:https://www.buzzsprout.com/1329053Pamela Des Barres Home page for books, autographs, clothing and online writing classes.Pamela Des Barres | The Official Website of the Legendary Groupie and Author (pameladesbarresofficial.com)Listen to more music by Laurie Larson at:Home | Shashké Music and Art (laurielarson.net)View the most amazing paintings by Marijke Koger-Dunham (Formally of the 1960's artists collective, "The Fool").Psychedelic, Visionary and Fantasy Art by Marijke Koger (marijkekogerart.com)For unique Candles have a look at Stardust Lady's Etsy shopWhere art and armor become one where gods are by TwistedByStardust (etsy.com)For your astrological chart reading, contact Astrologer Tisch Aitken at:https://www.facebook.com/AstrologerTisch/Tarot card readings by Kalinda available atThe Mythical Muse | FacebookEmma Bonner-Morgan Facebook music pageThe Music Of Emma Bonner-Morgan | FacebookFor booking Children's parties and character parties in the Los Angeles area contact Kalinda Gray at:https://www.facebook.com/wishingwellparties/I'm listed in Feedspot's "Top 10 Psychedelic Podcasts You Must Follow". https://blog.feedspot.com/psychedelic_podcasts/Support the showPlease feel free to donate or Tip Jar the show at my Venmo account@jessie-DelgadoII
