Love – She Comes In Colors
One of the best West Coast folk-rock/psychedelic bands, Love may have also been the first widely acclaimed cult/underground group. During their brief heyday — lasting all of three albums — they drew from Byrds-ish folk-rock, Stones-ish hard rock, blues, jazz, flamenco, and even light orchestral pop to create a heady stew of their own. They were also one of the first integrated rock groups, led by genius singer/songwriter Arthur Lee, one of the most idiosyncratic and enigmatic talents of the 1960s. Stars in their native Los Angeles and an early inspiration to the Doors, they perversely refused to tour until well past their peak. This ensured their failure to land a hit single or album, though in truth the band’s vision may have been too elusive to attract mass success anyway. ________________________________________ Verse 1: A thought in my head, I think Of something to do Expressions tell everything I see one on you Chorus: Whoa-oh-oh-oh, my love she comes in colors You can tell her from the clothes she wears Verse 2: When I was invisible I needed no light You saw right through me, you said Was I out of sight?
