Title: Vanilla Fudge – The Beat Goes On
Year/Genre: 1968, Psychedelic Rock / Experimental
Matrix #: ATCO 33-237
Condition: VG+++
Description: Released in 1968, The Beat Goes On was one of the most unusual records of the psychedelic era. Rather than a traditional album, it functioned as a sound collage mixing rock, symphonic passages, and spoken word, reflecting both the experimental spirit of the late ’60s and Atlantic Records’ willingness to take risks. Even the band later admitted they had little creative control, making it a fascinating example of label-driven experimentation. For collectors, it stands as one of the strangest artifacts of the psychedelic boom, a true curiosity piece from a band otherwise known for heavy organ-driven rock.
