You've never lived until you've had iron fudge with a vanilla butterfly in it.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

My love of Captain Beyond pointed me towards Butterfly, but what the heck, I went for both.

It's not that I can't find worth in anything, it's just that I can't find worth in enough.

Big fan of Renaissance by Vanilla Fudge. It beats out anything by I-ron Butterfly, even if they did have a classic Simpsons moment.

I went with both. Each found a niche in it's time.

Vanilla Fudge for me. Members of my fav bands, Uriah Heep and Deep Purple, recalled Fudge was a big influence for them.

Give me the Butterfly any day. Vanilla Fudge just doesn't do that much for me, comparatively.

I go for the Iron Butterfly, which surely never soared very high.
But VF was mostly about long, overwrought covers, whereas the Butterfly had some almost excellent originals (In The Time of Our Lives comes to mind).

Bogert and Appice ruled with the Fudge. Never liked Butterfly , sorry.

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Vanilla Fudge and Iron Butterfly... Two bands from USA that in PA are listed as Proto-Prog but that for me are two great example of Psychedelic Heavy Prog.
But Prog or Proto-Prog... Which of these two bands is your favorite?
