You're welcome, Allanagain.....it is a rather short album and nowhere near Love's best. But it is still intriguing to listen to...and I've always found the production quality to be excellent. I hope you enjoy it.

False Start sold pretty well here in the States as I recall. Maybe cos of the Hendrix connection?

"Slick Dick" is a MAJOR nuisance! not as bad as "Revelation" (thank GOD) but down there with "Run to the top" (meh)
and "Abalony"

And "Discharged" too, considering

Yeah, I don't expect the live tape will ever turn up. Stupid of that man to pass the live Whisky show without making a back up copy
but I guess it was a condition of the sale?

Not enough interest in Love for there ever to be a release for it. If it was a Syd Barrett track coming out (like the 20 minute Rhamadan, being released in October with a new Syd compilation as a download) there would be a veritable army of Pink Floyd (Sound) fans out there to pick it up

But a live Forever Changes band release.. can't see theres much interest. Can't imagine the most recent releases by Love (Love Lost, Arthur Lee, Whisky)
have exactly hopped off the shelf



Thats standard procedure, when you are hoarding a tape. Either you did sell it and dont want anyone asking you about it because
the buyer will want his money back. If everyone has a tape what was the sense in buying. You only buy to hoard or bootleg. But that he he doesnt keep a copy...... well, when you live outside the law you must be honest I guess. Chances are 0 that he didnt keep a copy.

KD: "Live outside the law"? You make him sound like a common
criminal - trust me he's not. Nothing unlawful in buying, selling,
or trading personal tapes.

Again folks, he either kept a copy for himself or he didn't, and either way he ain't telling !

Free the crimes !

I don't think so....if they researched all the records of sales of all the incarnations and releases, it must have surpassed the "gold" standard. Too bad they couldn't get it to Arthur before he died, as Johnny had wished and had tried to do. It would have made Arthur so proud.

(And damn that Hall for not inducting him)

Its the kind of thing Vegas wont give odds on.
What type of tape is it anyways? A professional tape or a bootleg audience tape? How did he obtain?

Arthur is in the Grammy Hall...inducted after his death...but do you need to be Gold Certified to get there? Not necessary I thimk....isn't he honored as a songwriter? But is Love honored there or just Arthur? I am unsure.

The group is honored at the Grammy Hall of Fame, and Johnny is singled out for his guitar work, But only Arthur Lee and Johnny Echols have recieved the certificate.
