Description
For sale is (what appears to be) a first pressing of Love’s Forever Changes in Stereo. The cover and vinyl are in good condition, not perfect by any means, but a playable copy of a landmark album. The gold Elektra label is more of a slightly faded brown or tan. The vinyl has a few smallish scratches (see the last photo), and I am not a vinyl grader, but the record plays through its entirety with no skipping. Both sides have surface noise and cracking and popping, especially in the first track on each side.
This original album is rare and is an awesome piece of rock history, thus making it a great addition to any collection.
Please refer to photographs and feel free to ask questions.
The record will be securely shipped is USPS.
Purchase with confidence and have a blessed day.
Thank you for your interest in my listing.
About the album:
Love’s Forever Changes made only a minor dent on the charts when it was first released in 1967, but years later it became recognized as one of the finest and most haunting albums to come out of the Summer of Love, which doubtless has as much to do with the disc’s themes and tone as the music, beautiful as it is. …The punky edge of Love’s early work gave way to a more gentle, contemplative, and organic sound on Forever Changes, but while Arthur Lee and Bryan MacLean wrote some of their most enduring songs for the album, the lovely melodies and inspired arrangements can’t disguise an air of malaise that permeates the sessions. … Forever Changes is inarguably Love’s masterpiece and an album of enduring beauty, but it’s also one of the few major works of its era that saw the dark clouds looming on the cultural horizon, and the result was music that was as prescient as it was compelling.
