Conceived as the last testament of a charismatic recluse who believed he was about to die, ‘Forever Changes’ is one of the defining albums of an era. Here, Andrew Hultkrans explores the myriad depths of Love’s bizarre and brilliant record. Charting bohemian Los Angeles’ descent into chaos at the end of the ’60s, he teases out the literary and mystical influences behind Arthur Lee’s lyrics, and argues that Lee was both inspired and burdened by a powerful prophetic urge.
