TILOTD - In-A-Gadda-Da_Vida

Things I Learned On This Day - The 1968 song In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly was actually a love song from Adam to Eve in the biblical Garden of Eden. In my younger days, I used to play the heck out of this record  but I only recently discovered that the title is a mispronounciation of "In A Garden of Eden". According to Wikipedia, organist-vocalist Doug Ingle wrote the song one evening while drinking an entire gallon of Red Mountain wine. When the inebriated Ingle later played the song for drummer Ron Bushy, who wrote down the lyrics for him, Ingle slurred his words so badly that what was supposed to be "In The Garden of Eden" was misinterpreted by Bushy as "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida". 

Fun Fact: In The Simpsons episode "Bart Sells His Soul", Bart passes out a song to be sung in church as a hymn entitled "In the Garden of Eden" allegedly composed by "I. Ron Butterfly".
