YMMV / Love (Band)

Go To

  • Awesome Music: The vast majority of Forever Changes (and particularly the first track, Alone Again Or) has had a tremendous impact on future songwriters.
  • Covered Up: Love's cover of "My Little Red Book" is the best-known version, even though it was a Burt Bacharach/Hal David composition originally performed by Manfred Mann. Love's version, with the opening bassline, is the basis for most rock covers of the song.
  • Epic Riff: The opening bassline of "My Little Red Book".
  • Fanon Discontinuity: Most fans and critics agree that Forever Changes was the last worthwhile Love album, though Allmusic has given favorable reviews to the post-1967 albums.
  • Squick: "The snot has caked against my pants" from "Live and Let Live".
  • Vindicated by History: They didn't sell very well at the time, but their albums have since been held in high regard by critics and fans.
