Summary
Host Dave Gebroe talks with OG Love mainstay Johnny Echols about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output (for 4 1/2 hours total), with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings—from both Dave and Johnny—for every release. 7 & 7 & 7 Is: The Definitive 21-Episode Story Of Arthur Lee & Love was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth, the almighty Love. Part 2 is the first part of my interview with Johnny, which covers the same time period as Episode 1, but in more granular detail, and heard directly from the man who lived it: it’s Love’s early years, as best friends Arthur Lee and Johnny Echols spend copious amounts of time inspiring each other…all of it building toward the moment they record their very first album as Love.
