There are so many different tales and stories about Love it is actually hard to know what is true and what is not. I was thinking about this while making my last post.

Here are some of the things I find to contradict the mythos of the band and some of the odd tales of....whatever. A lot of this is inspired from reading Michael Stuart's wonderful yet possibly flawed book.

The biggest question is Gethsemane. Now does this exist in any capacity or not ? Echols claims now that it was always intended to really be a solo project of sorts. I don't believe it. No way he would have a solo effort or a Love effort where he writes the majority of the compositions. No way I can see Arthur going for that, not to mention if it was to have this world music thing going for it then Lee would have jumped all over it. There are reports some of the tracks were laid down and even the Laughing Stock .45 was a part of the aborted album.

I have heard that Bryan MacLean was fired. I have also heard he quit. I believe he quit and had he not quit Arthur would not have fired the rest of the band. My personal belief.

The Barney Hoskyns book where the first thing Hoskyns wants to discuss is about a meeting in a bar in which Lee describes Hendrix as having homosexual tendencies. I don't know if Arthur said it, but I don't believe Hendrix would buy Lee a hooker and then show up to the room and try and come on to Mr. Lee passing on the gal all the while.

I got lots more but what is your take ?

John Tobler is running a record company as well still writing:

Yes, Journey would not be good. Perhaps even worse than Gary Glitter ? Maybe not. But bad.

Wow, that had to hit Arthur pretty hard. Anyway, we all can agree on one thing, at least were not in here discussing the best album by Journey. The 70's was believe me, the dark ages
for Love fans.

The name of the band is "Love". Lets make a note of that shall we? Im sure thats what Arthur would like. See - I know this because we are both from Neptune.
Thomas: you are a great character and keeping us on our toes! Thank You

Here's some Morrissey song titles:
"We Hate It When Our Friends Become Successful"
"The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get"
"Please Help The Cause Against Loneliness"
so...."whatever happened to the old gang, and why don't the post here anymore" sounds like another long winded Morrissey title.
I've never been into him myself.

Hey guys,

I am very speachless. I really am, and I appreciate the kindness that all of you have shown me. I wanted to definetly let you all know how much I appreciate every single member here, and the amount of knowledge someone as young as myself has been given by you all is extremely a gift.

Just know that. It has been a gift from all of you.

-Thomas
