Out Here (Love album)

After the dissolution of the original Love lineup following the release of Forever Changes (1967), Arthur Lee assembled a new band, including guitarist Jay Donnellan, drummer George Suranovich and bassist Frank Fayad. In 1982, eight songs from Out Here were used to fill out the first side of an album titled Studio/Live, released by MCA Records. Three of the songs were edited specifically for this release: "Doggone" (from 12:00 to 3:15); "Love Is More Than Words or Better Late Than Never" (from 11:20 to 2:30); and "Gather Round" (from 5:50 to 3:30). Studio/Live was issued on CD by One Way Records in 1991. The live side was recorded at Bill Graham's Fillmore East. In 1988, the British label Big Beat Records put together an official compilation called Out There, featuring most of the songs from Out Here and three songs from the band's follow-up album, 1970's False Start. In 1990, Out Here was released on compact disc by MCA Records. In May 2007, the album was included in The Blue Thumb Recordings, a three-disc compilation released by Universal's Hip-O Select division. ==Track listing==
