Used to listen to In a Gadda Da Vida all the time in 70

My neighbor (half a block away) Had a huge game room above a 3 car garage. shuffle board, bumper pool, pinball games, yada yada ... AND an awsome stereo !! He played In a Gadda Da Vida Every day! With all the windows open, Over & Over & Over & Over.... LOUD !! The whole block could hear it !!!
    I never got tired of it...    Summertime in my old neighborhood... I miss it.

I think it was supposed to be "in the garden of Eden" , but then the drug of choice altered it to "in the Godda da vida".

[IRON MAN]

I'm pretty sure it was "House of the Rising Sun" by the Animals. The album was on a 7" nylon 45 disc.

[Jay Bee]

Well...You know I've smoked a lot of grass - O'Lord, I've popped a lot of pills. (not that far from the truth).

Fall 1973 I went to the record department of EJ Korvettes and purchased my first three albums with my own money.

Dark Side of the Moon, Fragile by Yes and Living in the Past by Jethro Tull. Many nights listening to them on my old Koss headphones, and yep I still have them.

We have the same taste in music! 


My first "album" ever was Dark Side of the Moon. I had bought some 45's before this but this was the first album. My original copy got worn out. I have replaced it several times. I have owned it on cassette, I believe 8-track, vinyl, CD, and SACD. Right now I have an unopened copy on 180 gram vinyl and an open copy plus the CD and SACD. And I now have a collection of over 600 albums on vinyl and about 12 or more working turntables.

My first concert was Jethro Tull. I was supposed to go see YES but couldn't get a ride to the show. And when I got the chance to see Pink Floyd I snagged it. Best show I have ever seen hands down.

Embarrassing but true...
