That was their most remembered song, mostly due to its length & the great drum solo, but I actually preferred Flowers & Beads more. 8>)

The band's 1968 album In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida is among the world's 40 best-selling albums, selling more than 30 million copies.

I have the entire album in my phone; Flowers & Beads is great.

Interesting thing about In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. One evening on a long drive home I played it for my ADHD grandson. He was transfixed; the song really relaxed him, particularly the solo parts. There's something about that hypnotic mid-section.

When it was over, he remarked "That was really nice."
