2008 two CD set featuring the first two albums from this Heavy Rock outfit. Formed in New York in 1966 and signed to Atlantic's subsidiary Atco, Vanilla Fudge invented Heavy Rock. With a line-up of organ, guitar, bass and drums, they took existing Pop songs (and on later albums, Folk songs, classical music and their own compositions) and gave them extended, slowed-down, organ-drenched arrangements, which were an instant chart success with the burgeoning albums market. They also managed to breach the singles chart with their first single, a cover of The Supremes' 'You Keep Me Hanging On' (featured on the first album in this package), which reached # 6 (US) and # 18 (UK) in the summer of 1967. This release contains their first two albums, originally issued in September 1967 and March 1968. Edsel

2008 two CD set featuring the first two albums from this Heavy Rock outfit. Formed in New York in 1966 and signed to Atlantic's subsidiary Atco, Vanilla Fudge invented Heavy Rock. With a line-up of organ, guitar, bass and drums, they took existing Pop songs (and on later albums, Folk songs, classical music and their own compositions) and gave them extended, slowed-down, organ-drenched arrangements, which were an instant chart success with the burgeoning albums market. This release contains their third and fourth albums, originally issued in July 1968 and March 1969, both of which reached the Top 20. Renaissance contains the band's own compositions alongside their interpretation of Donovan's 'Season Of The Witch', another hit single. Near The Beginning features only four tracks, amongst which is the Fudge's seven-and-a-half minute reworking of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's classic 'Some Velvet Morning'. Edsel.

Then and Now is an entirely newly recorded album on which the 2004 edition of Vanilla Fudge bassist Tim Bogert, guitarist Vince Martell, drummer Carmine Appice, and organist Bill Pascali (replacing original member Mark Stein) recreates its versions of songs that appeared on its Atco Records albums and singles of the \'60s. (On one track, \"Need Love,\" Martell is replaced by Teddy Rondinelli, as the San Fernando Valley Symphony Orchestra backs the band in a live recording.) The three new songs are the 1979 Rod Stewart hit \"Da Ya Think I\'m Sexy?\" (which Appice co-wrote with Stewart while working as his drummer) and, oddly, versions of two hits by turn-of-the-21st-century boy bands, *NSYNC\'s \"Tearin\' Up My Heart\" and the Backstreet Boys\' \"I Want It That Way.\" The performances are true to the Vanilla Fudge style, with slowed tempos, quotes from classical and traditional themes, and lengthy improvisation (eight of the 12 tracks run over six minutes), and the album certainly demonstrates that, almost 40 years into their career, the bandmembers retain their rock & roll chops admirably.
