Dorman joined Iron Butterfly before the release of their album 1968's In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, a massive hit best known for its 17-minute long title track. He performed on their next two records before they temporarily disbanded in 1971. He rejoined the reunited group in 1977, and except for a few hiatuses, performed with them regularly over the next three decades. Iron Butterfly declared him their "driving force" and "a major influence on bass players for the past 30 years" on their official website.

R.I.P, at least this guy got to a good age.

Here we go again. It's feels pathetic to see musicians passing away like anything. Srs, how many we have to see more before 2012 finishes?

This is sad. I literally came home from buying In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, this is weird. What does it mean? R.I.P. These guys meant more to me than just one song. They were innovators and gave us amazing music. Goodbye Sir.

It's strange to read "found dead in his car" and "nothing suspicious about his death" in the same sentence.
---- Kick Ass, Die Young Less is More Stay Pure Stay Poor Music was my life, music brought me to life and music is how I will be remembered long after I leave this life. When I die there will be a final waltz in my head that only I can hear.
