Once again, it's a good while since I posted here. Today I have received by delivery two Love items - both of them gems:
The Forever Changes 50th Anniversary box set - it has of course already been much discussed on this forum. And it has taken its place in my collection alongside the equivalent Beatles sets for Sgt Pepper and the White Album - although I don't intend to make a habit of this!
Love Revisited - Rhino's 2018 rerelease of the classic 1970 compilation. As it has never appeared on CD, it is easy to forget just how beautiful the album art is, with its use of classical and renaissance imagery. Most intriguing of all is the excitedly written essay by someone called 'Ellen', that is so prominently displayed inside the gatefold. These are the first liner notes ever to appear on a Love album. As for the disc itself - it is of red vinyl and is replete with Elektra's magical butterfly label...........perfection!
