Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

9. Love – Forever Changes

AB: Certainly not the greatest album ever made, as the greatest album ever made won’t contain mention of “snot” in it, but Arthur Lee was a 60s Lee Mavers. It’s the never-reached potential with him. Or rather, he did reach his potential because this album stands up but he got lost afterwards. But it all came together for this record. It’s a dark album and good music can be dark while still being uplifting. Love were on the front line.
