This is lovely - thanks for Posting, Joe. This has from the very beginning, always been one of my favourite Love songs. It is interesting to note that amongst the lyrical changes is "to dance and sing my live away" altered to "that I could give my life away" ...which I think actually sounds better....it seems to be a deeper statement of commitment.

Yes!

The 1967 whole album by this Ohio garage psych outfit on Mainstream is awesome. Like so many Mainstream releases--quite valuable today!

I'll post their bio soon.

any demos of Bryans for this track been released yet?

I can definitely see why Johnny and the others thought it was a cool track - its definitely the jazziest track on the Love debut, and its probably one of the standout tracks on the album. Thankfully it turned up on Revisited!

This has been promised for years now! Anyone know
anything? I even wrote to Michael Anderson who
produced some of Bryan's stuff and he knew nothing.

Such vocal beauty....that clip has been shared here before and I saved the mp3 for personal play, but nothing since about any release of a full acoustic album. Wouldn't it be nice!.

Dukie? What's the word.
