Arthur Lee and the band he fronted, Love, are widely acknowledged as one of the finest and most influential groups of the late ’60s. Their psychedelic-folk masterpiece, Forever Changes, regularly appears high in polls of the greatest albums of all time. Until now, however, there has been no substantial book on the group. Including extensive interviews with Arthur Lee, guitarist Bryan Maclean (who died in 1998), and many other people involved in the L.A. scene of the time, this fascinating tale reveals the dark side of the Summer of Love — heroin, crime, and bitter ego battles — while also tracking Lee’s musical career through the post-Love years to his present incarceration in a U.S. jail.
