Who knows what gems there are to be discovered-- or forever lost. Forever changes.
Im told that he didnt start with the taping until after the original Love was done, NO original Love in the vault. If by any chance they had found it would already have been exploited.

The Blue Thumb box set included "Live in England, 1970". |

Is that actually a serious question? I do sometimes wonder. For real Love fans, it was a fascinating release. To have the two Blue Thumb releases remastered for the first time together with a record of the well received 1970 tour of England was wonderful. Whilst I've always had some reservations about the way Arthur's vocals were recorded on the live set, I certainly wouldn't be without it. When you add in the attractive booklet, which includes some new (to me at any rate)pictures, an interesting essay and meticulously accurate session information.......well, need I say any more?

KD: Hey Rock. One of my all time fav Love tracks is Que Vida from Da Capo. I was grooving to this the other night and noticed the KILLER organ track coming in at the end. Guess who played that too ?
Yeah Snoopy! Thx!!!! Now I'm going tos ay something. Seriously, DA CAPO's side one is perhaps one of the most glorious and beautiful song sides in all of rockdom. Who were doing any songs like that at the time? The 'sound' is incredible that came out of the band's heads, fingers, hands, etc and into the pristine air. The "styles" that they experimneted with were I think "avant garde" if there was any California band involved in it. They came a long long way from You I'll be Following! Now Lou in NY was pretty good with his edgy, dreamy and airy stuff here in NY but arguably Arthur with DA CAPO showed I think that he could do a little more than Lou at the time when it came to skirting the "avant garde" bit in music. Now I could see Lou doing "Orange Skies" or "Que Vida!" but Arthur beat him to it... |

someone from this board was kind enough to do me a copy of the LIVE IN LONDON disc from the Blue Thumb box set, and i think it,s really good, a great re- master job, and one of my fave live Love discs. |

I thought False Start had been remastered long before the box set
It goes for a lot on eBay when it turns up. Amazon has it at a rather steep $60, used

I beg to differ. That was the first time I ever heard the song and loved it from the off. I have even played it since I discovered the original too.
I agree with Boombox. I actually think it's a pretty decent version, obviously not quite as good as the original but a worthy effort. I often listen to it.
This is the time and this is the time and it is time, time, time, time, time, time, time.....
