Don't know about the book or album, but I did hear that there's supposed to be a documentary in production about Love... |

It's being produced by an independent - don't know when its due to be released, but I do know they've filmed interviews with most of the 'major players'. |

You may laugh, but....
I had a chat with Arthur and Johnny in Leeds on the afternoon before the gig there on the last tour (a chance encounter in a hotel bar) - Arthur said that a film company wanted to make a documentary about him, and that they had just delivered a contract to the hotel for him to look at - and he was holding a large envelope....
Don't know how much truth there is in it, but don't dismiss the possibility out of hand...

Oh, I never dismiss anything totally but planning things and it all actually coming to fruition is not always the same thing...let's wait and see, I say |

Great news if the documentary comes to fruition and the result gets an international airing. I hope so, and that it is soon. Current concert footage can do nothing but good, from what I've seen and heard. The recent appearances of Arthur on TV have been positive, but have only shown him as an articulate, cool 'talking head' and reminiscing. Getting across to as large an audience as possible what Love are like NOW is all important. I really hope that Love get some more major festival work ASAP, and that it is televised as per Glastonbury. Implicit on previous postings on this topic are concerns that the Love/Arthur renaissance may totally run out of steam through lack of 'product', ie. a proper album, and that such a record when it appears may not be of the calibre that we hope for, based on the new stuff that has been aired over the last couple of years. The officisl website's not been up to the job - almost essential in this increasingly net-based world, and some of the venues that Love have been booked into have perhaps been wastes of energy for little reward - Bisley, for example. Arthur has had a rocky year or so, with deaths and partings and whatever he may have turned to to cope, and his sojourns in the City of Angels, it has been hypothesised, may not be doing him much good. But Johnny's back - I hope for the duration - and if this re- ignites the creative muse, great. I reckon that they will have been doing more than chewing fat and talking about the weather. If there has been a knock-on effect that recorded material is no longer thought of so highly, so be it. This may not be a bad thing.. as long as the funds are there to translate new ideas onto disc and get the result out soon. The current Love are a great band, but they need the best possible management, promotion, record deal etc. As Randy California once sang, 'The clock on the wall is ticking for us all'. A documentary can do a great deal of good, as I'm sure that Arthur etc. can deliver the goods in this context, but the other factors must be in place if it is to be capitalised on. Send a warm vibe .. and yes, my last posting on this topic should not have been sent, being of questionable taste and humour. Got out of bed the wrong side, I guess.. |

A friend of mine has been working on it. It's well past the planning stage, they've already completed most of the filming. |
