Ball is a studio album by the rock band Iron Butterfly, released in February 1969. After the enormous success of "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida", Iron Butterfly modified its acid-rock sound somewhat and experimented with shorter, more melodic compositions. The band's trademark heavy guitars, however, are still evident on such tracks as "In the Time of Our Lives" and "It Must Be Love." The album reached number one, making Ball more successful than In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. Ball was certified Gold by 1969. In 1999, Collector's Choice Music released Ball with two bonus tracks, I Can't Help But Deceive You, Little Girl and To Be Alone, which before this release, was only available on a 7 inch single format.
