A magnificent finale to possibly the greatest album of all time.

still resonates now. I'm 70 years old. It's all about the LOVE.

I don't know how long KZfaq has been in existence. But 767 likes? For one of the greatest songs of all time? With real clips of the band? It has been up since 2017. If we didn't know the world was upside down before, we do now. Jump

This song has to be one of the most beautiful and powerful ever written and recorded! The poetic lyrics, melodies, time changes, chilling violins and orchestral accents..... ...far surpasses anything ever out of California..... above the Byrds, Beach Boys, The Doors and the Eagles! As of 2021, 'You Set The Scene' still remains, like fine art....timeless and classic! It contains a depth and beauty within it's body. I refer to it as Audio Art, a reflection into Laural Canyon from the Muse on Mt Olympus! May Arthur Lee & Love always be remembered for this epic piece!!

Arthur Lee and Love were both criminally and commercially underappreciated during their time together. Nice to get a taste of their genius. Damn!

Jac Holzman, founder of Electra Records (Love's label), stated in his biography that in his entire career he had only encountered two legitimate musical geniuses: one of them was Jim Morrison and the other was Arthur Lee...

Gets better with age. It reminds me of my sister, who brought this iconic record home when it was released. It defined our lives, and opened our world. Thanks, Pamela, rest in peace and Love. ❤

This is an epic song. Period.

Like many, I happened upon Love's music because I am heading to a local concert/dinner venue (small cap) to see a band I never heard of prior, but I knew "Alone Again or..." by the Damned which was on the play sheet. Once I did my typical deep dive, I came to the surface wanting to devour ALL their music! I am obsessed with Love! 7 and 7 is, is, in my mind, one of the first punk songs. Those drums and that vocal! Absolutely amazing!

the string parts, but specifically the cello piece is fucking sublime... different from anything else and then the brass, oh dear god...

Wonderful job, on the montage! Apparently this song is actually two or three songs, strung together in this arrangement, much like the Beatles’ “A Day in the Life” started out as two separate songs. There is a live performance of this, towards the end of Arthur Lee’s life that is breathtaking.

Rediscovered Love recently, and its the most beautiful feeling to listen to it now. I say rediscovered cus my dad played a lot of different 60/70s psychedelia for me when i was a kid, but ofc i never remembered what it was. And now its like i found a forgotten little part of me through this incredible music. Absolutely love this album :)))

For every happy hello there will be goodbye. Achingly beautiful perfection.

I can't stop listening to this.

Beautiful homage to Arthur Lee and Love!

The coolest song by the coolest band

Beautiful footage of a beautiful soul.

This is music for a hurting world -- the world of 2020. This sound brought me through the 1960s through to the present. "...Time, Time, Time, Time..."

These guys should have been bigger than they were, thier like the American BEATLES 😅😊

Can't name a more brilliant band from that golden era and over the decades of listening they've become increasingly and endlessly...interesting.

most under rated artist ever

Been a Love-Fan for decades. Thank you for the wonderful visual embedding of this brilliant song!!

This made my day! (and possibly my WEEK) Thank you so much for uploading this. It was a real treat.

Timeless Tune - Thx Love for all the great music, cool video

Thanks Sky Vibes for Setting the Scene with this video. Love the poster with Love, The Doors, and Canned Heat. I had 3 older brothers who introduced me to those bands. We lived in LA, and they saw Love and The Doors perform at the Whiskey and Hollywood Bowl. They took me to the Beatles' last concert when I was 9, but I missed Love.

just incredible

It doesn't get any better. Sigh.

I saw them once on Sunset at a club called The Hullabaloo (which later became the Aquarius Theater). Bryan MacLean was a big part of that band. If Arthur Lee was Lennon, MacLean was McCartney.

Love's best Album, he fell out with Bryan McLean who then left, then a bit later he sacked the rest, I don't think they could have bettered this Album so maybe it was for the best. Absolute classic to this day and the Forever Changes Live he toured is every bit as good.

So happy to be in LOVE today

This is a beautifully put together video.

Forever Changes. The best record of all time or just the most gorgeous rock record ever. There will be time for You to Put Yourself ON . And it's basically 4 songs in One.

I just have no words ....

All the L.A. bands loved Love.

Un capolavoro.

I met and videotaped the great #ARTHURLEE... #LongLiveLove, a flame of inspiration from the 60's. Great footage.

R.I.P. Arthur

Always and forever is LOVE💋💯

Love was always one of my most favorite bands. Arthur Lee was phenomenal, as was the whole Band. They were cheated by Electra!

Lovely, thanks for sharing this, and Arthur, rest in peace.

LOVE the footage! Thank you so much for sharing.

Luv

Love the video of the strip. Its all still there but the people are different and Arthur has been gone a long time now

Great 👌 job on video

Poet Laureate Arthur Lee putting himself on. This is the time and life that I am living And I'll face each day with a smile For the time that I've been given's such a little while And the things that I must do consist of more than style There'll be time for you to start all over

Great song from an even greater LP - and your vid is excellent, SV. I always loved the deliberate distortion at the end of "Oh whoa, whoa, whoa ..."

No smartphones and mass obesity. People interacting with each other... What a scene.

I remember seeing this album in my aunts record collection decades ago early 80s? I didn’t listen to it pause I thought it would be soft like ‘byrds. Endless record collection stuff, Bands I never heard of before my time, at that time. I didn’t like mtv music unless it was April wine heavy which became extinct by 1984.

Thanks for this.My Brother came home from the war and turned my young mind onto Love.They have been a big part of my Musical like ever since.

wow x

Jim Morrisons favorite band

Everything's Groovy; Right Peggy Foremen🌹

Classic Ending to a Classic Album. I hear he thought he was going to die when this was recorded. It somehow I feel definitively captured most of Western Music up to that point.

I am Like (LOVE) no. 850.

Hello for another week of RetroCountdown. Good to see the Beatles back at number 1 in the singles charts hey. Unfortunately the Australian band picked by you.....can't all be together until next week.....so they will be here next week for sure. This week's Ep. is a double Ep. and it is pretty special. One of my favourite albums of the 60s is Love's "Forever changes".It consistently makes the best albums of all time lists. To me, it evokes a sensation of what 1967 as a 6 year old felt like....along with "Bookends" "Sgt Peppers" and "Astral weeks". I love this album. Their record company has allowed us access to their catalogue.... Available tomorrow for $2.00 Will be a double Ep. of 6 songs "You set the scene" "And more again" "Red telephone" "The good HUMOUR man" "7 and 7 is" and "always see your face". We Will be releasing singles from classic albums of the past from time to time in the future. You lucky things. Day 6965. 5 x 7 x 199. Raw honey and all of my urine til 5.15pm then fresh and dried figs and sprouts and Muscat grapes then more urine. No change.

Fantastic video. Well done!

perfeita não há outra descrição pra essa música

Por que Love não teve o mesmo reconhecimento que Beatles, Stones e Who? Nem metade disso... coisas que vou morrer sem entender

Love-ly done. Saw many of the bands at that time (Doors, Canned Heat, Jefferson Airplane etc, but never Love.

Wonderful video. Thank you. Forever Love.

YUMMY

Awesome !!! Love the editing of this video.. and 6:48 ...High AF...lol

Somebody must have the footage of Love playing at the Newport Pop Festival in 1969.....

Where are you walking, I've seen you walking Have you been there before? Walk down your doorsteps, you'll take some more steps What did you take them for? There's a private in my boat and he wears Pins instead of medals on his coat There's a chicken in my nest and she won't Lay until I've given her my best At her request she asks for nothing You get nothing in return If you want she brings you water If you don't then you will burn You go through changes, it may seem strange Is this what you're put here for? You think you're happy and you are happy That's what you're happy for There's a man who can't decide if he should Fight for what his father thinks is right There are people wearing frowns who'll screw you up But they would rather screw you down At my request I ask for nothing You get nothing in return If you're nice she'll bring me water If you're not then I will burn This is the time and life that I am living And I'll face each day with a smile For the time that I've been given's such a little while And the things that I must do consist of more than style There are places that I am going This is the only thing that I am sure of And that's all that lives is gonna die And there'll always be some people here to wonder why And for every happy hello, there will be goodbye There'll be time for you to put yourself on Everything I've seen needs rearranging And for anyone who thinks it's strange Then you should be the first to want to make this change And for everyone who thinks that life is just a game Do you like the part you're playing I see your picture It's in the same old frame We meet again You look so lovely You with the same old smile Stay for a while I need you so, oh, oh, oh, oh And if you take it easy I'm still teethin' I want to love you, but Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh This is the time and life that I am living And I'll face each day with a smile For the time that I've been given's such a little while And the things that I must do consist of more than style There'll be time for you to start all over This is the time and this is the time

Christ! Only 2200 views. Incredible.

Great video. One of the top albums of that period of all time, IMHI.

This is really more than one song in one. Sort of like Paul McCartney tries to do but it's never good at but the great Arthur Lee pulls it off! Imagine if John wrote with Arthur.

Maravilloso video

Why is it so hard to find footage of them in their early years?

This album tops Sergeant Pepper's, imho.

👌🙏😞

Aurther Lee ..enough said.

Muy bueno 🍾

🌞

Whats Bacchirach and David? What's a dionne Warwick ?, Man, this is the most best album ever made-ever! Michael you may heard of love and Arthur. Author looks so beautiful. Very profitability 8 MN

Brilliant! At 1 min 7 seconds - anyone know what year or gig that was?

U gotta read Go West The Rock and Roll Memoir - 19671970 … Arthur meetz me tripping my branez out on the hilltop @ Kirkwood & Laurel Canyon Boulevard … also … Arthur came 2 Marquise & my house in Hollywood and took Dolly Dagger & Eric Burdon'z ex-Angie 2 hiz after they stayed w/ uz a cupple daze … also Silkie took me up 2 hiz mountaintop place after we left Charlie Manson'z Spahn Ranch … Dolly gave me Jimi'z purple suede and leather fringed jacket

but that ain't Arthur Lee singing correct me if I am wrong.

6:47...2:23...5:26

I don’t get it. Nothing special about this music.
