The Ides of March is an American jazz rock[1] band that had a major US and minor UK hit with the song "Vehicle" in 1970. After going on hiatus in 1973, the band returned with their original line-up in 1990 and has been active since then.
Vehicle is the debut studio album by the Ides of March, released in 1970. The single, "Vehicle", became the fastest selling single in Warner's history, after which the band was hustled into the studio to record a full album. Vehicle's songs range through many genres including rock, pop, soul and folk.
In his retrospective review for Allmusic, critic Mark Deming wrote "the band sounds tight, enthusiastic, and emphatic on all ten tracks" and that the album "documents this band's limitations as well as its strengths, but ultimately it's a good week's work, and shows the Ides of March had more up their sleeve than their only hit." Conversely, Robert Christgau called the album "Schlocky... more schlock than anyone needs".
