Da Capo is the second album by American rock group Love, released in January 1967 by Elektra Records. The bulk of Da Capo was recorded between September 27 and October 2, 1966. “7 and 7 Is” was recorded on June 20, and had been released as a single in July 1966 backed with “No. Fourteen”, an outtake from their debut album. After the recording of “7 and 7 Is”, Love’s line-up expanded to include Michael Stuart on drums and Tjay Cantrelli on saxophone and flute, moving previous drummer Alban “Snoopy” Pfisterer, a classically trained pianist, to harpsichord and organ. Guitarists Johnny Echols and Bryan MacLean, bassist Ken Forssi and vocalist and leader Arthur Lee retained their respective positions.
The album’s first half is a departure from the group’s debut, and in some ways anticipates the group’s third album, Forever Changes, with its detailed, delicate arrangements. Abrasive, proto-punk rockers like “7 and 7 Is” and the harpsichord-driven “Stephanie Knows Who” are balanced by lighter fare such as MacLean’s florid “Orange Skies”, and playful, barely classifiable pop tunes like “¡Que Vida!”
The album’s second half is a single track, notable for being among the very first rock songs to take up an entire LP side (Bob Dylan’s “Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands” from Blonde on Blonde predated it by a few months, and Frank Zappa’s “The Return of the Son of Monster Magnet” suite, on the Freak Out! album, followed Dylan’s by just over a month). The 19-minute jam, entitled “Revelation” began life as a live showcase for the group. Some sources claim it evolved out of their interpretation of Howlin’ Wolf’s “Smokestack Lightning”, yet its original title was “John Lee Hooker”. The song/jam bears a resemblance to the Rolling Stones’ “Goin’ Home”, recorded at the same studio (RCA) and released earlier in the year, on Aftermath. Arthur Lee is quoted on the back cover of Rhino’s 1980 LP compilation “Best of Love”
