Following Dorman's death, Iron Butterfly dissolved once more. Charlie Marinkovich revealed in 2013 that he had departed the band altogether and that Ron Bushy was very ill, shrouding the band's future in doubt. At times during his recovery in 2014, Ron Bushy entertained the idea of putting a new Iron Butterfly band together, possibly with Martin Gerschwitz returning on keyboards and lead vocals.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ironbutterfly.com/news.php |title=The Official Iron Butterfly Website |website=Ironbutterfly.com |access-date=April 18, 2014 |archive-date=December 27, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121227224224/http://www.ironbutterfly.com/news.php |url-status=dead }}</ref>
