Summary
Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. Host Dave Gebroe talks with podcast OG Joe Kennedy about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output, with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release, including long-form interviews with both Johnny Echols and the members of Baby Lemonade, who’ve served as Love now for coming up on 35 years. 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 9 is a track-by-track exploration of every single song on Love’s undisputed masterpiece Forever Changes, which only a fool would argue is not the towering peak of the band’s career. Here, then, is everything you could ever want to know about the songs on this perfectly conceived record. Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The incredible and tragic story of the trumpet soloist on the opening track, “Alone Again Or”; The jaw-dropping story behind Johnny Echols’ double-tracked guitar solo on “A House Is Not A Motel”; The only Forever Changes track that was actually a holdover from Da Capo; The very real possibility that Arthur Lee may have actually invented rap music; The one Forever Changes outtake; And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on every song off Forever Changes.
