Da Capo

After releasing their eponymous debut album, Love broadened their scope into psychedelia on their sophomore 1967 effort Da Capo. The six songs that comprise the first side of this album are a truly classic body of work, highlighted by the atomic blast of their only hit single “Seven & Seven Is”, the manic jazz tempos of “Stephanie Knows Who,” and the enchanting “She Comes in Colors”, perhaps Lee’s best composition (and reportedly the inspiration for the Rolling Stones’ “She’s a Rainbow”). Closing the album is a 19-minute jam called “Revelation” that takes up the entire B-side of Da Capo.

They’re one of those bands that are being rediscovered by every new generation. Once you found Love, your world will be better.

Da Capo is a masterpiece of late 1960s psychedelia. It’s available on audiophile black vinyl.
