Love's 'Forever Changes' Super Deluxe Box Due This Spring
Multi-disc set features unreleased tracks, marks album's 50th anniversary


By Kory Grow


A new, 50th anniversary box-set edition of Love's landmark Forever Changes album will feature unreleased tracks, alternate mixes and a hardcover book. The set, due April 6th, will create a comprehensive portrait of the album through four CDs, a DVD and an LP, paired with liner notes by music historian Ted Olsen that break down each track on the album.

The album's original co-producer and engineer, Bruce Botnick, specially remastered Forever Changes for this release, which also marks the first time the mono version of the record has been available on CD. The collection also features alternate mixes, unreleased singles and outtakes. The DVD features a high-resolution audio mix of the record, as well as a promotional video for "Your Mind and We Belong Together" that came out in 1968.
Other rarities include single versions of "Alone Again Or" and "A House Is Not Your Motel" that have not been available since 1967 and a previously unreleased backing track for "Live and Let Live" and an outtake backing track for "Wonder People (I Do Wonder)."

"When I did that album," frontman Arthur Lee once said, "I thought I was going to die at that particular time, so those were my last words." Nevertheless, the singer performed the album live well into the 2000s, before his death of cancer in 2006.

The record, which ranked Number 40 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of all Time, was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2008 and included in the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry in 2012.
