Best. Version. Ever.
Song of the Day:
Brave Combo – Fascination/In-a-Gadda-Da-vida
The Brave Combo may be known as a sort of New Wave Polka band but, they really were not limited to Polkas, rather they experimented with many types of world musc, Tangos, Cha-Chas, Mambos – stuff like that. Their version of the old Iron Butterfly classic which cleverly segues from from the traditional waltz, Fascination into the In-A-Gadda da intro is none of that but, rather Punk with accordions. It features a frenzied tempo and a blistering guitar “solo”. Even the drum solo is awesome (read: concise)! In short, it is pretty great, making it our favorite version of In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida! Enjoy.
Bonus:
David Van Tieghem – In-a-Gadda-Da-Vida (Black Light Mix)
Another unusual version, from percussionist David Van Tieghem is beat heavy and very Eighties. Great if you like the type. And we do.
