Ken Forssi interviews

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.

Ken Forssi interviews

Post by gerardpdaily »

I am interested in trying to find any interviews that were done with Ken Forssi, Love's bass player. I know of two, neither of which I have been able to access. One is in the third issue of The Castle, which is really hard to get in the States, currency conversion etc. The other is mentioned in the website 60'sGarageBands. The author there has an interview with Snoopy Pfisterer and states that he had done an interview with Ken in earlier days. I e-mailed him and he said that he has no way to repost that interview on the 60'sGarageBands site. Does anyone out there know how to get ahold of either of these interviews or if any other interviews with Ken exist?

I would really like to see an interview or something that gives more information regarding Ken Forssi as well. Of all the members of Love his story is probably the most tragic. Very sad how the latter part of his life progressed. He was very much a key figure in the development of the music but perhaps didn't get the recognition he deserved.

As I recall, Michael was good friends with Kenny and they roomed for a while too....

Any stories about Kenny that are close to your heart, Michael ?

.....we would love to hear them....



Michael?

Seconded.

It was too bad that the Love Story film was only able to offer a brief, taped interview of Kenny.

So, Michael gives us a fun story over at the Johnny & Michael thread...
