Just in case you didn’t get the joke in the headline, there’s a Love song called “Andmoreagain” and I was trying to be witty and funny. Anyway, fans of Love’s masterpiece Forever Changes may be thrilled to know that there’s a re-issue afoot which will see the original LP reissued with loads and loads of bonus material. Yes. I know there was a reissue in 2001… but this looks better, ‘kay?
Rhino will give the world one more Forever Changes on April 22nd, with their 40th anniversary double-disc “Collector’s Edition” of the ‘67 LP. Okay, it’s a little late, but better late than never. Great news for first-timers and good news for ‘already love it’ types, as this version will see a complete alternate mix of the album as well as outtakes, demos, backing tracks, and even something called “tracking session highlights”. Read over for full tracklisting…
