In 1967, Arthur Lee and his then stable band, Love, came up with Forever Changes - widely considered to be their, and one of rock’s greatest masterpieces. While making some impact in Europe, in particular England, at the time, the album was practically ignored in the US. Now, 50 years later, the album is being recognized for what it is (even by Rolling Stone, who missed its greatness the first time around).
At nearly 600 pages long, the book pulls together most of his previously published work, from song lyrics to poetry to the entirety of his posthumously published writing collections.
This time around it's the 1969 music festival Toronto Rock'N'Roll Revival, which became best known for a rare solo performance by John Lennon (the first for the Plastic Ono Band), during his final days as a Beatle.
The original album tracks will be newly remastered by The Doors' longtime engineer and mixer Bruce Botnick and will be accompanied by a biographical comic book.
