1967 FIRST pressing vinyl...
STILL IN FACTORY SHRINK WRAP!
One of the first pop albums to become a cult classic, Love's 1967 masterpiece, FOREVER CHANGES, is the pinnacle of the L.A. freak (the locals' preferred term over "hippie") scene. Singer/songwriter Arthur Lee's lyrics are increasingly fragmentary and paranoid, foreshadowing the band's eventual drug-fueled collapse. Yet these drop-dead hip tunes are set in super arrangements. the title track spiced with mariachi style winds, other tracks enhanced with lush middle-of-the-road strings, and other tropes of the easy listening scene, creating a more unsettling sense of tension than if the songs were given the usual heavy rock instrumentation. Every single track is a stoned classic, although second songwriter Bryan MacLean's contributions, the haunted "Old Man" and especially the simply gorgeous opener "Alone Again Or," deserve special consideration. FOREVER CHANGES belongs high on any halfway serious list of the greatest rock albums of the '60s.
CONDITION: the cover stil in factory shrink wrap, has wear only along spine from bin wear, overall EX (excellent) though front and back cover are MINT.
The vinyl on the old gold label is VG++ with light scuffs, one short needle mark on "The Old Man", however the Lp plays very enjoyable for a 40 year old item...lots of life left!
