''Heavy'' is the debut studio album by the rock band Iron Butterfly, released in early 1968. The first two tracks, "Possession" and "Unconscious Power", were released as the respective sides of a single. Three of the group's members (Jerry Penrod, Darryl DeLoach and Danny Weis) left the band shortly after the album was recorded, leaving Ingle and Bushy to find replacements. Despite being a debut album with no hit single to provide an entry point for the casual listener, ''Heavy'' was a commercial success, reaching #78 on the Billboard Charts〔Joynson, Vernon (1995). (''Fuzz, Acid, & Flowers'' ). London: Borderline Books.〕 and eventually going Gold in the US. Contrary to rumor, tambourine player Darryl DeLoach contributed lead vocals to only a few songs on ''Heavy''. As with all of Iron Butterfly's albums prior to ''Scorching Beauty'', most of the lead vocals are by Doug Ingle. ==Cover art== The album's artwork depicts the band members playing their instruments beside a large monument of a human ear. It was designed by Armando Busich (artwork) and Joe Ravetz (photography). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Heavy (Iron Butterfly album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
