    OK, so you've got your Hotel California", "He's So Vain", and, "Sweet Caroline" conspiracy theories.....

    I thought this one was interesting.

    In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida

    Though it was not recorded until their second album, "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" was written during Iron Butterfly's early days. According to drummer Ron Bushy, organist-vocalist Doug Ingle wrote the song one evening while drinking an entire gallon of Red Mountain wine. When the inebriated Ingle then played the song for Bushy, who wrote down the lyrics for him, he was slurring his words so badly that what was supposed to be "in the Garden of Eden" was interpreted by Bushy as "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida".

    I'm not hiding that I deleted the posts. HCP was clearly derailing your thread so I thought it was best to delete his comments and your replies to them to help get back your thread back on topic.

    And like I showed you a few days about there is a log of what was done.

    It's not a problem at all. I was simply making public note of the fact.

    Thanks.

    Do you think Carly wrote that about Warren Beatty? That's the general consensus. Either him or James Taylor. I'm thinking the former.

    The line "fish and finger pies" in the Beatles' Penny Lane is Liverpool slang for fingering a girl. So now you know.
