In 1967 at the peak of the psychedelic movement Vanilla Fudge bursts through the open gates with a giant battering ram and gave the early beginnings of both hard rock and progressive rock like a stick of dynamite that’s ready to explode. They had released five studio albums from Atlantic’s sub-label ATCO records from 1967 to 1969, mending the sounds of pop, soul, and blues into a powder-keg with a brand of a psychedelic aura, waiting to be unveiled.
This 9-CD set box set released by Esoteric Recordings consists not just the band’s albums from the ATCO label, but a live performance recorded on the first of January in 1969 at the Fillmore West in San Francisco, who at the time, were promoting their Renaissance album.
