Released December 2014!   Vanilla Fudge single... Silent Night

"Rockin' The Wall" - a film! Bringing down the wall. Smashing the curtain. Rock n' Roll as a force of liberation. "Rockin' the Wall is the compelling story of rock and roll's part in bringing down the Berlin Wall and smashing the Iron Curtain. Told from the perspective of rockers who played at the time, on both sides of the Wall, and from survivors of the communist regimes who recalled the lifeline that rock music provided them, Rockin' the Wall features new interviews and several original songs written exclusively for the film. The message that emerges is that music is a force of liberation, and in a society like America's, where it was seldom (if ever) truly suppressed, music failed to ignite a social revolution. But behind the Iron Curtain, where the mere act of expressing one's individuality constituted a potential act of revolution, music provided the key thread upon which the anti-communist struggle gained ground."

Lavine   ...And what an evening it was! Shortly after we arrived at the Sunrise Music Theater, west of Hollywood... Mark, his wife Patty, and I went to a backstage door and Mark spoke with Steve Morse, the new guitar player for Deep Purple, about seeing Mark's old touring buddies... At first, no one believed that Mark Stein, the keyboard virtuoso and lead vocalist for Vanilla Fudge, was really present backstage. Ian Paice was the first to come out from a group meeting & freaked when he saw Mark. "Is that really you? My God I can't believe it," he said as they embraced. "Jon's gonna shit when he finds out you're here - hold fast I'm gonna go backstage and get him out." When Jon Lord came out & saw Mark, instantly their relationship was re-born. They seemed in awe of each other, lots of hugs & handshakes - a beautiful moment for all. And when Roger Glover & Ian Gillan joined in it was like a bloody High School reunion. After all, Vanilla Fudge and Deep Purple toured together in the late 60's and in fact, Deep Purple opened for the Vanilla Fudge back then. Later that evening while standing around, a guy was talking to Mark about how he used to listen to Vanilla Fudge when he was younger. The guy said to Mark that Vanilla Fudge was from Boston and Mark quickly said that they were from New York. The guy insisted that he was right and Mark said once again to the contrary and to trust him on this. Of course Mark never let on that he in fact was in Vanilla Fudge, which was absolutely hilarious to me. Jon Lord, keyboard player for Deep Purple, has been quoted as saying that Mark Stein was one of his biggest influences. In fact he told Mark the same thing again when they met this night. I have to tell you here that Mark Stein and Jon Lord were both huge influences on my own keyboard style. Vanilla Fudge has always been my favorite Rock & Roll band, but Deep Purple is only a half game out of first place... so-to-speak. It was really incredible for Mark to see Jon Lord, Ian Gillian, Roger Glover and Ian Paice again after so many years. To be able to see them all together back stage with Mark Stein was just too much! The guys all talked and hugged for quite a long time even though there were reporters and photographers standing all around waiting for them. It was really great to know that friendship is more important to these guys than another publicity shot. Sitting center stage in the front of the music theater was a perfect place to be to feel the legendary, loudest band in the world, according to the record books. Their music was as awesome as it was back in the 60's and 70's. These guys can still smoke! Really, there is no music today that can compare to the sound and power of the masters of Rock & Roll such as Vanilla Fudge and Deep Purple! I can only dream of such times, to see them both in concert together again! Of course, Mark Stein will always be my hero and musical idol.
