MY LITTLE RED BOOK
Love
Love
My Little Red Book from the debut album by the Los Angeles-based rock band Love is a radical reworking of the Burt Bacharach-Hal David song, the title of which is likely a tongue-in-cheek reference to Mao Zedong's Little Red Book which was first published by the Communist Party of China in April 1964. My Little Red Book peaked at #52 on the Billboard Hot 100 in June 1966. The song was first introduced by Manfred Mann in the 1965 film What's New Pussycat and was featured over the final credits of the movie High Fidelity in 2000, and the Beverly Hills 90210 episode "Alone at the Top" in 1995.
