retro 1968

Love (1968) van Margo Guryan
The song “Love” opens with Aquarian noodlings, spacy fuzz guitar and some eerie echo effects that evoke a freakout scene in a hippie exploitation flick. The chaos congeals when the jazzy bass and drums kick in; this measured madness is anything but self-indulgent. Based on this experimental vibe, one can assume the title doesn’t refer to classic, possesive boy-meets-girl love, but a universal, abstract concept of love that fascinated longhairs at the time. Guryan calls it “a friendly feeling.” Others called it acid.
