LoVE covers....

LOVE was another great band from the 60's and of course VERY Doors related.
I think it would be great to have this special topic about the band who was such a big example for The Doors.

LoVE covers....

Post by jamestkirk »

"A House Is Not A Motel" covered by AXE 1969

Here is a cover most have likely not heard here-- by 1960's Psychedelic/Space Rock band AXE. Here is the song and bio especially for those who love UK sweet folky vocals with a fine Northampton lady on lead...set to a space rock/prog psychedelia...nice searing lead guitar.

Axe biography
Rumored to hail from Northampton, UK act AXE (or AXE MUSIC according to alternate sources) were one of the most obscure acts in the field of psychedelic rock and hard rock of the late 60's.

They made a handful of acetate copies of an album in 1969, named "Music" in the original version (or "Axe Music" if alternate sources are correct; and also released as "Live & Studio"), and in more recent years a live concert with the band performing cover versions of various tunes have emerged as a CD named "Live 1969".

The line-up consisted of Vivienne (Countess Vivienne according to some sources) on vocals, A. Barford (guitars). R. Hilliard (acoustic guitar), M. Nobbs (bass), S. Gordon (drums, percussion).

We like to see Love covers here...this must be one of the earliest...from 1969.



Have you heard this very early cover of Love, Ed?
