notes
• “Arthur Brown: Uncrowned King of the Underground, Last Disciple of the First Spiritual Awakening, Enduring Champion of Freedom and Love, Charlatan, Fool, Genius, Innovator, Ordained Minister of the Lord, God of Hellfire, or simply the greatest singer you have never heard: Discuss…”
• Arthur Brown, easily one of the most electrifying, colorful, and flamboyant Rock singers in the world, has been famous for his literally incendiary, highly theatrical stage show for four decades. His many millions-selling 1968 hit “Fire”, both in its single and LP versions, dominated the charts in the US and Europe simultaneously, and for many weeks.
• On “The Voice of Love"”, his first new studio recording in over ten years, Arthur again showcases his powerful vocals and songwriting in a set of 10 new rootsy, British folk-inspired songs, with a driving acoustic groove, and his riveting version of the 1960’s soul classic “That’s How Strong My Love Is.”
• “The Voice of Love” was recorded in a vintage studio near Brighton, in Southern England, during 2006, on 2 inch master tape, in glorious analogue, with live performances throughout. Large amounts of valves, tape noise, love and natural energy abound, and lo-fi, passion & truth hold sway over digital data, irrelevant accuracy and robotic precision … this is music, not media!
• The first 5,000 copies of the North American, ZOHO ROOTS label release of the CD includes original full-sized artwork by Arthur Brown, making this first edition an instant must-have collectors’ item for the group’s many fans!
“One of the most electrifying one-shot artists of the 60s, British singer Arthur Brown briefly set the charts alight in 1968, as well as thrilling audiences with his theatrical performances, which saw him wearing helmets of fire and outlandish costumes. His debut album was surely one of the most left-field successes of the late 60s, if not of rock history.” ALL MUSIC GUIDE (Rock)
“We saw Arthur and his Crazy World, and the whole thing was just an eye-opener to me. He used to sing “I am the god of hell fire”, and then he would set fire to his *** head. That told me a lot. I knew where I was heading from then on.” GEORGE CLINTON
