Hutchison insisted on doing everything as it would have been done half a century ago, but with added perfection. "I want to have the best-sounding records in the world," he says.
ERC as it's known, reissues only from analog tape using a restored all-tube playback and cutting chain, reproducing the cover art with startling accuracy to the original. Most of what ERC reissues are long out of print, highly collectible and expensive to buy recordings.The reissues, pressed in limited numbers and become collector's items themselves. Yes, they are expensive but far less so than the originals, and sonics are superb.
Forever Changes is the third studio album by the American psychedelic rock band Love. Failing to achieve commercial success when it was first released by Elektra Records in November 1967, it has since been widely accepted as one of the greatest albums ever made, ranking 40th on Rolling Stone magazine?s 2003 list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, and being inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2008. The band, formed around the twin talents of Hollywood brat Bryan MacLean and folk beat rebel Arthur Lee, and were seen as moody outsiders to the LA peace an love community, known for their insularity and rather edgy image. By 1967, after two albums released in relatively rapid succession, the band were holed up in Bela Lugosi?s mansion in the grip of acid-fried egotism and early heroin addiction. Recorded in June of that year, Forever Changes is anything but a reflection of those times. This is the truer sound of late-1960s Los Angeles, which was neither a trippy paradise nor a Lizard Kingdom, but a purgatory characterized by paranoia and grievance.
