Description
After leaving Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi band trombonist Julian Priester and synthesizer pioneer Dr Patrick Gleeson put together this now-legendary album in two sessions in 1973.
Extending the experiments of the Hancock sextet this music can also be related to Miles Davis's robust Afro-funk-slanted electric group music of the period. Pumping bass ostinati, riffs and a big 'tribal' beat connect Love, Love to the music of Sly Stone and Funkadelic as well, while the shifting clouds of spacey improvising can also make a listener think of minimal music or Sun Ra. More than 40 years later this slice of proto-cyberfunk is still thoroughly enjoyable and timely.
Personnel: Julian Priester Pepo Mtoto (trombone, horns, whistle, flute, percussion, synthesizer); Pat Gleeson (synthesizer); Hadley Caliman (flute, saxophone, clarinet); Mguanda David Johnson (flute, saxophone); Bill Connors (guitar); Bayete Umbra Zindiko (piano, clavinet); Ron McClure (bass); Nyimbo Henry Franklin (bass); Ndugu Leon Chancler (drums); Kamau Eric Gravatt (drums, congas).
Description
Love was a seminal psychedelic Folk Rock band from Los Angeles, active from 1966 until the mid seventies. Their eponymous debut album contained a diverse set of wonderful tunes, most of which were penned by Love's mastermind Arthur Lee. It proved to be a stepping stone to the equally excellent follow up albums Da Capo and Forever Changes (both released in 1967).Unfortunately the band never gained mainstream popularity like their peers The Byrds, but Love's music remains a gem of the wild and psychedelic sixties which will prove to resonate with music lovers for decades to come.Love is available on audiophile black vinyl.
