                      Love is Alive and well

Original girst USA pressing made by Tower records 1967

Mono

T-5080

Kim Fowley’s first full-length album ever (although it was an extremely short ten-track-anything-but-long-player that caught Fowley in full L.A. ‘flower power’ mode...mere months before his switch to ‘Canyon People’ culture.) But Fowley was a man on the scene and already used to fully embracing all things new in the swirling musical trends, promptly adapting them to his own mysteriously teenage agenda. By one listen -- no, look -- of this record, you’d think he invented ‘flower power’ single-handedly. There he is, grimly staring directly into the camera on the front cover, stuffed into a Spector-ish velvet jacket with his hands pressed together in prayer around a flower as flower children cavort in the background in the late evening summer sun. And almost all the titles have the words ‘love’ or flower’ in the title, to prove how sincere he is about the whole thing. Is Kim Fowley sincere on this record? Is he ever? As usual, there’s enough ammunition on both ends of the scale to neither tip it either for or against, and besides, who cares. Because even if you don’t buy Fowley’s gambit for one single minute, you got to admit that it took unfeasibly big balls to foist this platter upon the public.
