Anyone familiar with the band Love?

Forums:

My buddy thinks Forever Changes is the best album of all time. I listened to it and it was good/ok. Any thoughts?

Better than good/ok but not the best album of all time. They didn't last long in that configuration. Went to see them some time shortly after the album and they had become a generic soul band.

It's hard to believe there's only been one band called "Love".

Likewise, re: derivations thereof; akin to the "New Originals". 

the best of all time? nah. one of the greats? for sure.

I think 'Da Capo' is better and more wild/adventurously freaky, but 'Forever Changes' is real good.

 Saw Arthur Lee's Forever Changes tour in 2003 at the Park West in Chicago.  He was backed by Baby Lemonade out of Los Angeles and an eight-piece horn and string section.  Lee performed Forever Changes in order and in its entirety, along with a bunch of others from Love's catalog.

Four Sail is may favorite. Or anything on Blue Thumb records
