Love's albums post Forever Changes, seem to be overlooked even by fans of the band. And critics would have you believe that nothing of note was recorded by Arthur Lee & Love after 1968. But this C.D. contains some of the best songs Arthur Lee ever wrote.
This album is a collection of songs taken from two albums that were released after 1969's Four Sail (also underrated). 1969's Out Here, and 1970's False Start.
I'll Pray For You and Love Is Coming, are positive, upbeat songs with a gospel like vibe to them. While, I Still Wonder and Stand Out are Jimi Hendrix influenced masterpieces. In fact Jimi Hendrix appears on the album, playing on a song which he also co-wrote with Arthur Lee, called The Everlasting First. Listen To My Song is sang and played brilliently, and harks back to the acoustic theme of Forever Changes.
Overall, I find it hard to believe that this album isn't regarded in the same way the earlier ones are. I repeat that some of their best songs are here, and it is an essential purchase for all Love fans.

This album is by the second version of Love, with only Arthur Lee remaining from the "Forever Changes" version.
Apparently, the band recorded 27 songs over a period of about a year, and for contractual reasons Elektra had first choice. They took 10 songs and released them as "Four Sail" in 1969, with the remaining 17 being released as "Out Here" a few months later on the Blue Thumb / Harvest label. "Out Here" was a double album in vinyl days, and almost inevitably has a few throw-aways and meandering tracks (beware the drum solo!).
Although (in theory) all the best songs should have been on "Four Sail" there are still plenty of excellent songs on "Out Here" which Elektra somehow missed out on. However, on balance, I would advise starting with "Four Sail" before going on to this album.
Please note:- "Out There" was a compilation album featuring a selection of songs from two albums - 1969's "Out Here" and 1970's "False Start".

Worth it for the chilling "slow-grind" version of "Signed D.C." alone. They sound more like "Free" than "Love".
There's a broad range of styles covered here - and look out for the guest appearance of
*** JIMI HENDRIX ***
on "The Everlasting First" - instantly recognisable!
"I Still Wonder" and "Stand Out" sound Hendrix-inspired - acid rock!
"Gather Round" is great - bitter, cynical Arthur Lee with an almost Gospel backing.
The only irritant, for me, is the speeded-up guitar playing on "You Are Something" - like Pinky and Perky in a folk jam with some leprauchauns!

Out There - underrated.
Out There combines Tracks from the last two studio albums
recorded by Love.
Often regarded as inferior to the albums by the classic original
line-up. Read more

Pffft!! A Shallow Echo of the Glory Days!
There were times when folk salivated at the thought of a double album's worth of Love. Sadly these were not those times. Read more
