Vanilla Fudge - You Keep Me Hanging On (Vinyl)

"Vanilla Fudge" - "From their 1967 album Vanilla Fudge, enjoy their unique style and strange vocals, but they were original. This album as possibly the first progressive rock release. How many bands could produce an album that reached number three on the national charts consisting entirely of covers of classic compositions ranging from The Beatles, to The Zombies, to Sonny Bono, to The Supremes? That's exactly what Vanilla Fudge accomplished in 1967..."

I really liked their cover of “Season of the Witch”

Nice solarization on that cover art.

I saw them live at a small ballroom less than 200 ft from where I lived in 1967 for a cover charge of 1.50.

HA-..."Everyone who could “play” a guitar could play the intro....That's funny ....do I detect meaning in the term Quote 'Play' unquote...

[virgil283]

You have me beat...I saw “Question Mark & The Mysterians” playing ‘96 Tears’ above a store front in a bad part of town...maybe was a dollar...got cheated too...

[Zeneta]

That’s so cool.

I picked up on Deep Purple in the mid 70’s, a late comer, no doubt.

I happened to become a member of the “Columbia House” music scam at 13 without my parents knowledge. I had know idea what I was buying at the time. In addition to getting more Beach Boys records than anybody needs, I happened into Jethro Tull and that was the best thing I could have heard to form my appreciation, a real appreciation for music and all its complexities.

Awesome! LOL! Actually I think I have it bookmarked already. I think I picked the album up in NY when our ship was there for Navy Day.

[rktman]

LOL! Gotta admit I got sucked in to that too.

[Zeneta]

In 1984 or 5, I was hanging out on the Mall in DC during the 4th of July.

Wondering up and down the Mall, checking out the “American Folk Life Festival” aspect, we stumbled into a tent with live music.

There where no more than 30 people under this tent and we watched George Thorogood and John Lee Hooker, together, going all out !!!

[virgil283]

Hey...Hey..that’s pretty good...I’ve wanted to see Thorogood....

[Zeneta]

“one bourbon one scotch one beer”

Long version is best.

[VerySadAmerican]

Yep. Those of us who thought we could play. We could also play GIVE ME SOME LOVIN’.

[glock rocks]

Saw them sing this live at the Terrace in Salt Lake. No mistaking that Hammond!

[informavoracious]

Great rendition, even if all the drugs screwed up the lyrics a bit.
