So how did you burn up your Thursday night?

I listen to no less, honestly no less, than 7 reaction videos too

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida
(If you never heard it please say so)

Why

? Because I listened to one and this song is addicting. It came out when I was 14 years old and whenever it starts playing I can't shut it off.
It's also the fastest 17 minutes I can pass in my life because the amount of times I hear it, it doesn't feel like it's 17 minutes long. It feels like it's 5 minutes long.

Of the people I watch, I believe one person that made the video honestly never heard it before.

I believe the other ones are all content providers burning up content, accumulating their watch time.

There's just so many things that people don't realize that's fascinating. This song was recorded in one soundcheck studio take. With over dubbing before the album was released.
They didn't even know the engineer was running tape on them. There's one thing that people do recognize and listen to it. Hear all the panning in their headsets. Nobody does that recording music anymore.
Jeff Beck heard them play this in an even longer version before they did the recording, and he wanted to join the band, although he never did.

It was just the Thursday night of nostalgia.

This was also sung as the entrance hymn in The First Church of Springfield years ago. [media=https://youtu.be/qSCUhqsy4Nk?is=CkPimHuTuSP5QXTr]

I must have listened to it no less than 500 times when I was young. Every beat in the drum solo is committed to memory.

@carpediem And that's how it works. It's meant to be consumed. Every note every beat every transition.
This kind of thing doesn't exist today.

An underrated classic!
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@Nimbus I'm not sure underrated applies to my generation but I think because of the play time it is less known of by following generations and it's also unheard because unlike today's music it's not bumper to bumper lyrics and lost on those who stopped listening to musicians play and focus on whining self pity lyrical songs.

Was that overly judgemental?
Nimbus · M
@Gibbon Yes, you are correct and no, you are not being overly judgemental.
It seems with each generation they lose a bit of 'soul' and the finer things in music passes by.
So much so that we now have AI composing songs and people are buying them 🙄
btw,

@Nimbus my problem with this album is it's not the original butterfly. The vocals are weak. And without Ingle's organ the whole sound is lost. It's a different band by the same name.
