VANILLA FUDGE - WHERE IS MY MIND (THE ATCO RECORDINGS 1967-1968)

Zestaw dziewięciu płyt CD zawierający pełne nagrania Atco autorstwa Vanilla Fudge, wykonane w latach 1967–1969. Nowo zremasterowane z oryginalnych taśm-matek. Zawiera albumy „Vanilla Fudge” (wersje mono i stereo), „The Beat Goes On” (wersje mono i stereo), „Renaissance”, „Near The Beginning” i „Rock & Roll”, a także dwupłytowe nagranie na żywo w Fillmore West w 1969 r., sesje plenerowe i rzadkie single. Dołączona ilustrowana książeczka zawierająca nowy esej zawierający ekskluzywne wywiady z zespołami. Zespół pierwotnie znany jako The Pigeons zyskał rozgłos dzięki radykalnym, spowolnionym i ciężkim interpretacjom aktualnych hitów. Podpisali kontrakt z Atco Records, oddziałem Atlantic w kwietniu 1967 roku i zmienili nazwę pod naciskiem założyciela Atlantic Ahmeta Erteguna na Vanilla Fudge. Ich radykalna wersja coveru przeboju The Supremes „You Keep Me Hanging On” została wydana jako singiel w czerwcu 1967 roku. Zdominowana przez mocne podejście ich sekcji rytmicznej i potężną grę Marka Steina na organach Hammonda, znalazła się na liście 10 najlepszych w USA uderzyć. Debiutancki album zespołu, zatytułowany tak samo, ukazał się w sierpniu 1967 roku i był koncertem psychodelicznego rocka, zawierającym siedmiominutową wersję utworu „You Keep Me Hanging On”, a także pomysłowe covery kompozycji The Beatles, Zombie i Curtis Mayfield, między innymi. W ciągu następnych dwóch lat VANILLA FUDGE nagrała serię albumów, które ewoluowały od psychodelicznego rocka do ciężkiego rocka i wywarły wpływ na wiele wschodzących zespołów, w tym Deep Purple, zanim rozpadły się w 1970 roku.
