Did they ever record anything other than "Inna Gadda Da Vida", and what the hell was that all about anyway?

It appears in a Simpsons episode as 'In the Garden of Eden' by I. Ron Butterfly, when Bart swaps the hymn sheets over. Reverend Lovejoy eventually realises, commenting: 'Hang on... this sounds like rock and/or roll'

Boy do I remember this one. The radio version was long for the day, I think over 4 minutes. The album version was even longer -- in the 7-8 minute range. They came through our town (Louisville, KY) and did a live concert where it ran something like 20 minutes. The whole band started playing and during the course of it they began leaving one at a time until only the drummer was left on stage in a mad solo. The band eventually came back, loaded down with beer and poured some into the drummer while he continued to play. Then they joined him in the song again and finished up with a loud finale.
