180g Audiophile Vinyl!
Mastered by Friday Music's Joe Reagoso with Ron McMaster from the Original Elektra Records Stereo Tapes!
The legendary underground rock superstars Love, fronted by the brilliant Arthur Lee with his fellow rockers Bryan MacLean, Alban Pfisterer, Johnny Echols, Ken Forsi, John Fleckenstein and Michael Stuart, set the music world on fire back in the mid- to late- sixties with their hypnotic brand of rock 'n' roll. With major exposure on L.A.'s Sunset Strip, along with fellow mega bands The Byrds and The Doors, Love's eclectic songs, master showmanship and stellar music abilities made them one of the few premiere bands who helped architect the fusion of acid and garage rock, which is still heard in alternative rock of today.
In 1980 Rhino and Elektra Records honored these hugely popular rockers with their stellar anthology album, simply titled Best of Love. Filled with a treasure trove of 16 charting singles, deep Elektra Records album tracks, as well as rare B-sides, this incredible LP brought newfound acclaim to the band who were now influencing a whole new legion of fans.
No stone is left unturned, as this 16-track masterpiece is loaded with hit singles like "My Little Red Book," "She Comes in Colors," "Seven and Seven Is," "Hey Joe," plus selections from their most loved album Forever Changes with the masterpieces "Along Again Or" and "Andmoreagain."
As one of the more rare albums in their catalog, Best of Love has been out of print for years, making it an instant collector's item, which hasn't seen the light of day for over four decades... that is until now! Friday Music is pleased to announce on audiophile vinyl: Best of Love. Mastered impeccably from the original Elektra Records tapes by Joe Reagoso (Love/The Monkees/The Byrds) at Friday Music Studios and Capitol Records with Ron McMaster, this amazing rock classic truly shines in the audiophile vinyl domain. Unearthed vinyl mixes of their classic hit singles and solid album tracks like "Stephanie Knows Who," "Can't Explain," and "Signed D.C." truly resonate as you remember them from years ago.
To enhance your limited edition album, Friday Music has also included the historic album cover artwork elements as well as superior rare liner notes including those from the sorely missed Arthur Lee himself!
