As
Love’s most revered album is titled Forever Changes, it’s little wonder that
their superior back catalogue encompasses a multitude of genres: folk rock,
garage, jazz rock, baroque, psychedelia, soul, funk, and reggae - or certainly
Arthur Lee’s does.
As Love’s most
revered album is titled Forever Changes, it’s little wonder that their superior
back catalogue encompasses a multitude of genres: folk rock, garage, jazz rock,
baroque, psychedelia, soul, funk, and reggae - or certainly Arthur Lee’s does. But
who can separate Love from their beleaguered yet brilliant front man? Love On
Track explores the many embodiments of his group, with his solo work closely
examined at the same time.
Love were the first rock signing to folk
label Elektra and something of this contradiction inhabits their work. From the
raw beat of their eponymous debut, to sweetly ruminative songs on Da Capo, to
the ultimate comment on the counter-culture in Forever Changes, onto Four
Sail’s auguring the hard rocking 1970s, these albums represent Love’s best
known work.
But the book knows the Love story doesn’t
end there. There’s the epic double album Out Here, collaborations with Jimi
Hendrix, vegetarian protest songs, and a gorgeously romantic revival in Five
String Serenade. There are also stops along the way to recall the solo work of
Bryan MacLean et al, a new interview with Berton Averre, who played with Lee in
the 1990s, and a detailed look at live recordings – the book is a real labour
of Love.

Emma Stott is the author of two previous Sonicbond titles: Jimi Hendrix On Track, and The Zombies on Track. She writes about education also, in particular, linguistics and literature; a poet and short story writer too, her last work reimagined The Great Gatsby as a folk horror starring The Rolling Stones – or at least a band that closely resembles them.
