When we recorded at Gov’t Mules bass players house Jorgen (Carlsson), because we had a BBA, live at the London Rainbow coming out. Was there any other significance to the band in recording that song?Ĭarmine: Well, it was a main significant thing that happened. Karl: So yeah, in that tribute you did to Tim, ‘To The Legacy Of Tim.’ You said the reason why you did ‘Stop In The Name Of Love’ was to get him back into the studio so you could get that last song. Karl: Yeah it’s a rarity.Ĭarmine: Yeah, total rarity and it l closed the book on us you know, ‘Hanging On’ by The Supremes, ‘Stop In The Name Of Love’ by The Supremes, the book is closed with Tim. I don’t know anyone that’s released any new music with all four original members since like 1967. They could have released solo stuff you know, nobody that I know of has released it and everyone I talked to agrees with me this now. That released a new song recorded recently, right? With all four original members and everybody that was in the top 10 with us, the Beatles, the Stones, Jefferson Airplane, Jimi Hendrix, The Cream, or The Who, nobody has original members in it. And by getting Tim on that song, it put us (Vanilla Fudge) into the class of the fact that there’s no other bands from that 1967 movement of you know ,”underground music” as we called it. But the good thing about it is we got him on that song. But then again, he ended up in the same place, but he lasted two years after that, suffering. You know, and it’s good a thing he wasn’t on his motorcycle and the same thing (happened). And he found out by riding his motorcycle somewhere. He (Tim) died after having had cancer (for some time). Karl: Okay, first off, so sorry for your loss. (1st October 2021) Interview by Karl Anchique
