Although Iron Butterfly owed Atlantic Records another album, Ingle walked away from the band, the label- and his career in professional music in 1971.
Iron Butterfly was more of a psychedelicized garage band with a graduate degree in surf and pop; their equipment, Mosrite guitars (trademark of the Surfaris) and Vox Super Beatle amps (however distorted), were true to that aim (what is "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" but the "Wipeout" for the Age of Aquarius?).

 Iron Butterfly: Heavy (1968)
"Heavy" showed the promise of what most would consider Iron Butterfly's masterpiece, "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida." Coming from a fan, it's not perfect by a long shot (I'll admit that some of the tracks are pretty dated), but it's still worth having for a listen or two every now and then.
This is not to say that their first two albums were bad, just that "Ball" and "Metamorphosis" were more solidly put together musically, in my opinion.
This is the prime cut of the album, if you ask me. This is the song that gave meaning to the album title.
