I downloaded a copy of "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" by Iron Butterfly the other day and I have really been enjoying it. This song was released as a single and as part of an album in 1968 and again as a live album in 1970. I remember quite vividly when I was just a young kid and my older brother put a new 8-track stereo in his car and this was the first tape he bought. We thought it was the coolest thing ever. The track is 17 minutes long, features awesome guitar riffs, keyboards, and a terrific drum solo. It has a good steady beat for running or working out via the iPod.

In the copy I have, you can hear the needle in the vinyl at the beginning of the song, which of course is perfect.
