Four Sail is the fourth album by the American rock band, Love, released in 1969.

Background

By mid-1968, Arthur Lee was the only remaining member of the Forever Changes line-up of Love. Three LPs worth of material were recorded in a makeshift studio in a Los Angeles warehouse, with Elektra Records given the rights to first choice of tracks to fulfill Lee's contractual obligation, and the remainder released as the Blue Thumb LP Out Here. For the album, Lee utilized double vocalization. He would play a vocal, and overdub it with another similar sounding one. [2]

"Always See Your Face" was featured in the 2000 film High Fidelity and was included on the official soundtrack.
