My favorite is their first album... simply titled "Vanilla Fudge".. has
all the greats including Keep Me Hanging On, Elenor Rigby, Take Me for A
Little While", etc.

A little known fact learned from my extensive research. Deep Purple used
to idolize VF early in their career. According to Ian Gillan, they used
to listen to them all the time while on tour.. Makes a lot of sense.

For someone just interested in getting into some Vanilla Fudge, which CD
would you recommend??????? I've heard a new live version of You Keep
Me Hanging On, but I believe Mark Stein is NOT the organist in the band
these days, although the guy is a Stein Devotee. Appice and Bogert are
in the band though....I've been hearing this version on XM radio a bit.
