MP3/320Kbs/66MB
Pop Rock, Garage Rock

Originally calling themselves the Electric Pigeons, they soon shortened the name to the Pigeons, who formed in Long Island in 1965. In April 1967 the Pigeons got signed to Atlantic Records. But there was one drawback, however, Atlantic didn't want a band called the Pigeons... In early 1966, the group recorded in 1966 or 1967 a set of eight demos that were presented several years later (1970) as While The World Was Eating Vanilla Fudge, credited to "Mark Stein The Pigeons". Prior to its release the group had dispensed with The Pigeons name and had become Vanilla Fudge...

1. Midnight Hour (3:50)
2. Good Lovin' (2:09)
