I remeber making out to that hymn

Funny, I did too...

Wait a minute, this sounds like rock and or roll!

Bart did it!

This always strikes me as the peak drunk/fucked before blacking out. Like yeah dude you're messed up but do I need to carry you home? Ok yeah you got the rest going, just can't get the chorus... But yeah your cut off now.

The name of the song apparently came about because organist/vocalist/songwriter Doug Ingle, thoroughly drunk, slurred the words "in the Garden of Eden" badly when playing the newly written piece for drummer Ron Bushy, who was jotting the lyrics down.

Basically the invention of stoner rock, together with The Beatles's ‘I Want You (She's So Heavy)’, and of course Black Sabbath's ‘Electric Funeral’ and whatnot.
