Product Description

CD Description
Love's original lineup splintered in 1968 under mounting intra-band tension. For many fans this was for all intents theend, but leader Arthur Lee quickly put together a new version of the band featuring guitarist Jay Donnelan, bassist Frank Fayad, and drummer George Suranovich. 1971's FALSE START is the third and last album by Love's second incarnation, with the recently departed Donnelan replaced by a string of hired guns.
A couple of tracks even feature solos by Jimi Hendrix, an old friend of Lee, who had given the then-fledgling guitarist his first session gig on an otherwise-forgottensingle by Rosa Lee Brooks. The opening Hendrix-esque wah-wah onslaught of "The Everlasting First" quickly recedes into an anguished yet surprisingly melodic blues-rocker that's among Lee's best post-FOREVER CHANGES tunes. FALSE START is not Lee's best work, but it's far from his worst.

3.0 out of 5 stars For those who like their love raw and ragged!, 5 May 2007
By Mr. John L. Ward "John Ward Byrd Brain" (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It needs to be stressed at the outset that this album is NOT in any way a sequel To 'Forever Changes'. With its minimalist titles and lyrics, it is the very antithesis of the much loved existential masterpiece. And yet 'False Start' does have a charm of its own. The Jimi Hendrix contribution to the opening track ('The Everlasting First') is well known and leaves the listener gasping for breath. But Hendrix was not the only lead guitarist on the record. In 1972 Jay Donnellan (Love's brilliant guitarist on 'Four Sail' and 'Out Here') was interviewed about his own dismissal from the band. He told how he had turned up as usual at the studio one day only to receive the following greeting from Arthur Lee: "Hullo - another cat's playing your licks today." The "cat" in question was Gary Rowles- whose pyrotechnical guitar work helps to give such a gloriously raw and ragged feel to this album. Add to this Arthur's fine 'Seven and Seven Is' style vocals and the soulful harmonies from half member Noony Ricket and you have a piece of work that is unique in the Love canon. When I first bought this album in 1971, I was appalled. Now I wouldn't be without it - not least because it serves as a document of Love's historic 1970 visit to the UK - their first outside the States. The BGO CD issue is fine - but the harder to find MCA version is more faithful to the colouring of the original Blue Thumb and EMI Harvest releases.

3.0 out of 5 stars More funky than melodic, 18 Nov 2004
By Laurence Upton (Wilts, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This album was a follow-up to Out Here and was recorded mostly in Hollywood in 1970, though a couple of tracks, including one fantastic work-out with Jimi Hendrix, The Everlasting First, were recorded in London.
The songs are simplistic when compared to the majesty of Forever Changes, but then what isn't? I suspect Arthur Lee was undergoing something of a writer's block while simultaneously exploring more closely the black music of the day, and the album as a whole is short and somewhat patchy by his standards.
More funky than melodic, but still eminently worthwhile
