The Never Ending Van vs The Never Ending Song

How bogus is this van?


Classic 1968 psychedelic album from Iron Butterfly. The title track being In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, a 17 minute musical journey into the unknown. When I was 12 my buddy made me a tape copy of this album  and I would just lay down and listen to it over and over until my mom started yelling at me. I am sure most of you guys are familiar with this but I don't give a rat's ass. Pull some Betty into your rolling motel put this record on and get to business!

Classic west coast crossover from Venice Beach, CA. I remember being 15 and hiding this LP from my mom when I brought it home cause I knew she would think she didnt want her precious son listening to such gnarly shit!

Knight Time Is The Right Time

 

The Knaughty Knights were a band a few years ago from the Memphis area when that scene really started blowing up. This is one of the few things that came out of there at that time that I actually dug.

And so it begins...


Welcome! I started this blog because I love vans and rock n' roll! I am going to try and feature some bitchin' vans from past and present as well as upload music that I think compliments them for you to download. You also might find the occasional chopper, car or other random goodies on here.  If you feel like contributing pics, tunes, stories, things for sale, links, hatemail send it to Vanarchy69@gmail.com. Let's get this party rollin'! 

I will start out the music with a band i think makes for the almost perfect vannin' soundtrack!
