Iron Butterfly is an American rock band best known for the 1968 hit "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida", providing a dramatic sound that led the way towards the development of hard rock and heavy metal music. Formed in San Diego, California among band members that used to be "arch enemies", their heyday was the late 1960s, but the band has been reincarnated with various members with varying levels of success, with no new recordings since 1975. The band's seminal 1968 album In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida is among the world's 40 best-selling albums, selling more than 30 million copies. Iron Butterfly is also notable for being the first group to receive an RIAA platinum award.
The band formed in 1966 in San Diego, California. The original members were Doug Ingle (vocals, organ), Jack Pinney (drums), Greg Willis (bass), and Danny Weis (guitar). They were soon joined by tambourine player and vocalist Darryl DeLoach. DeLoach's parents' garage on Luna Avenue served as the site for their almost nightly rehearsals.

Some walls are made of stone
sometimes we build our own
some walls stand for years
and some wash away with tears
Some walls are lined with gold where
some hearts stay safe and cold
some walls are made from doubt
holding in and keeping out
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
Some walls are built on pride
some keep the child inside
some walls are built in fear that
love let go will disappear
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
How will you ever know what might be found
until you let the walls come tumbling down
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
