    I met Doug twice, once in the 80s and then again in 1995 during the Iron Butterfly reunion tour. The band let people in their dressing room after the gig for a meet and greet. Doug was a very friendly guy.

    Doug Ingle was the voice of one of the most famous songs of the '60s. He had a really cool voice and I always loved his organ playing. Iron Butterfly were a very unique, very influential band and he was pretty much the driving force of the band during his time with them. RIP Doug 🎹✌️

    Iron Butterfly was big for me and Doug Ingle was the main reason. I met him on an IB reunion tour that had all the original members except Eric Bran. They sounded really great and was so glad I saw them like that. Doug was really down to earth and seemed to enjoy having conversations with real fans. He told me that he had been a house husband taking care of his kids while his wife worked a pretty good job. I'm sure royalties for Inna Gadda Da Vida alone helped pay for plenty.
    R.I.P. Doug

    The closing song on Ball (“Belda-Beast”) is always a bittersweet moment for me as it is the final recorded moment of the classic Iron Butterfly lineup and it always gave me the vibes of summer coming to an end as well as the band. And for the longest time, Doug was the last man standing as Erik, Lee and Ron had all passed away before. Now they are all jamming away up in the Heavens. RiP Doug, Erik, Lee and Ron.

    Thanks for doing this episode, Pete! I was deeply saddened to hear about Doug Ingle's passing. He was an early rock hero for me and one of the most unique vocalists of his time. Doug's work with Iron Butterfly, particularly on 'In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida,' "My Mirage," "In The Time Of Our Lives," "Lonely Boy," and "Butterfly Bleu" left an indelible mark on the world of rock music and on my own musical journey.
    His distinct vocal style and powerful tone set him apart, and he and Ian Anderson have always been one of my favorite vocalists. Doug's contributions to music will never be forgotten, and his influence will continue to inspire future generations of musicians and fans.
    Rest in peace, Doug Ingle. Your legacy lives on through your music.

    Doug Ingle was such an amazing musician, singer, songwriter that two of my favorite (out of ten) songs of all time came on a 45rpm. To be alone and I can't help but deceive you little girl.
    This guy was a one man sound army! There will NEVER be another like him. The world has lost a most incredible man and I will miss him dearly for the short time I have left on this great planet.
    Rest in peace, as peace is what you sowed.

    Saw this last evening but no chance to comment until now. Thanks once again, Pete, for your sincere tribute to Doug Ingle. For many of us, he is the voice of Iron Butterfly. Can still remember the older brother playing the album version of In A Gadda Da Vida until it drove mom and dad to complete distraction. RIP Doug and thanks for the great music for this then-12-year-old younger brother who couldn't seem that song enough.

    In 1988 I was lucky enough to see a reunion show of the original line-up from the "In A Gadda Da Vita" album during a tour they were doing in support of the Atlantic Records 40`th anniversary celebration. The band sounded great, and Doug was fantastic on vocals and organ. "In A Gadda" was the song that got me into hard rock.

  • @markkonzerowsky8871

    Doug mostly used the Vox Continental keyboard (as did Ray Manzarek). The "Metamorphosis" album sees him switching to the Hammond.

    Ball is an overlooked , lost psychedelic classic to me .
    It was always in the shadow of In A Gadda Da Vida .
    Over the years , I’ve come to appreciate it more than the Da Vida album .
    RIP Mr. Ingle .
    Thanks for the video .

  • @thedarkwizardroom

    A Nice tribute remembrance Pete. Alot of us grew up with the band and what a sound they so had. And Metamorphosis what a great album that was. And In A Gadda Da Vida which have vinyl of as well as vinyl of the Iron Butterfly Live . With an even longer version of In A Gadda Da Vida with 2 extra minutes and just what an epic track. Doug Ingle a fine voice so love and his organ keyboards that carried along with the rest of the band we got to know. And the band when he left and quit from the band and came back to reunion and as times to the band. What ever band of any that carries on today with members we will remember and always enjoy the music,. According to Wikipedia the current is these guys.
    Eric Barnett - guitar, vocals (1995-2002, 2015-present)
    Martin Gerschwitz - keyboards, vocals (2005-2012, 2018-present)
    Dave Meros - bass (2015-present; substitute - 2006)
    Bernie Pershey - drums (2020-present)
    Though on the bands website it mentions Phil Parlapiano to keyboards and vocals. Glad yo contribute along and be helpful with this community. as I have. TC

    One of my earliest album memories, courtesy of my older siblings. In an eerie coincidence, I was working around the house on Friday (the day he died) and having Alexa play various songs, and one of those songs was Inna-Gadda-Davida. It was 3 days later that I found out Mr. Ingle had died that same day. RIP.

    Sad news. I first started listening to music as a 10-year old in 1964. Later, I gifted a transistor radio, then started buying some 45-rpm records. But in April 1969, when I saved enough money ($4.00), I bought my very first a LP. My first album? In-a-Gadda-da-Vida by Iron Butterfly! Wow, I loved that group, Doug Ingle. Even 55 years later, I'd listen to their music a couple of times per year. So, very, very sad. R.I.P. Doug.😢

    Great job Pete, BUT I beg to differ with you regarding the "Heavy" album. Give a loud headphone re-listen to the song Iron Butterfly Theme. Released in January of 1968, it IS heavier or as heavy as anything that existed at the time. The guitar work by Danny Weis is remarkable.

    • @brucefranklin6295
      @brucefranklin6295 4 месяца назад +2

    • @creech54
      @creech54 4 месяца назад +3

      "Heavy" was a slang term, at that time, that referred to something weighing heavily on you emotionally, or something that was philosophically complex. "That's heavy, man!"

    " Atmospheric" might be a good word to describe their sound. I love the 45 rpm AM radio friendly version of " Inna Gadda da Vida". It's 3 + minutes . The drum solo is at best 2 or 3 seconds long. And didn't CHASE use the riff for the tail end of their song " Get it on" ?

    Musically, I always felt like Vanilla Fudge was the band Iron Butterfly should have been. But Doug Ingle was their secret weapon, as he had a unique, husky baritone that was the prototype for the kind of singers we would hear later in the 90s. In short---Doug was the Eddie Vedder of the 60s

  • @dinorocker8647
    @dinorocker8647 4 месяца назад +1

    Actually I think he used the Vox Continental in the band instead of the Farfisa Compact.

    Iron Butterfly Theme on Heavy has crushing riffs. The guitar tone is intensely heavy especially for 1967.
    Doug was in and out of Iron Butterfly over the years. There's a great video released from their European tour 1997. It's called, appropriately enough Concert And Documentary: Europe 1997.
