Forever Changes is the third studio album by the American rock band Love, released in November 1967 by Elektra Records. The album saw the group embrace a subtler folk-influenced sound based around acoustic guitars and orchestral arrangements, while primary songwriter Arthur Lee explored darker themes alluding to mortality and his growing disillusionment with the era`s counterculture. It was the final album recorded by the original band lineup; after its completion, guitarist Bryan MacLean left the group acrimoniously, and Lee subsequently dismissed the other members.

Forever Changes had only moderate success on the album charts upon release, peaking at No. 154 in the US[6] and No. 24 in the UK.[7] In subsequent years, it has become recognized as an influential document of 1960s psychedelia and named among the greatest albums of all time by a variety of publications.

Background
For Da Capo, Love`s second studio album, the band expanded from five members to seven in order to take on a more jazz-influenced style.[8] Shortly after the album`s release, however, bandleader Arthur Lee decided the experiment had run its course and fired drummer-turned-keyboardist Alban `Snoopy` Pfisterer and saxophonist and flautist Tjay Cantrelli.[9] This left a lineup of Lee (lead vocals), Bryan MacLean (rhythm guitar), Johnny Echols (lead guitar), Ken Forssi (bass), and Michael Stuart (drums).[10]


Love in 1966; one year before the beginning of the album`s recording.
By 1967, the band was facing major internal conflicts. The members were growing apart and, as a result, rehearsing and performing less.[11][12] Lee`s relationship with MacLean, Love`s other songwriter, was deteriorating.[13] In a 1992 interview, Lee spoke of him and MacLean `competing a bit like Lennon and McCartney to see who would come up with the better song. It was part of our charm. Everybody had different behaviour patterns. Eventually, the others couldn`t cut it`.[14]

Love were also at odds with their label, Elektra Records. After recording Da Capo, the band attempted for a third time to sever their contract with the label.[15] The resulting May 1967 agreement required them to produce one more album.[16] Throughout 1967, Lee also grew envious of the success of fellow Elektra band the Doors, whom he had been integral in getting signed. However, it has been countered that the Doors were more willing to work on the road than Lee,[17] who expressed a fear of leaving the band`s home city, Los Angeles.[18][19]
All songs written by Arthur Lee, except `Alone Again Or` and `Old Man` by Bryan MacLean. Details are taken from the 50th Anniversary Edition.[107] Bonus track `Wooly Bully` written by Sam Samudio.
