Geoff
Love (4 September 1917 – 8 July 1991) was a prolific Britisharranger and composer of easy
listeningand pop versions of filmthemes. He became famous in the late 1950s, playing under the
pseudonym of Manuel and his Music of the Mountains.
Orchestra leader Geoff Love (b. 4
September 1917, Todmorden, Yorkshire, England, d. 8 July 1991, London, England)
initially used the above name pseudonymously. The British-born son of a black
American dancer, he took to music at an early age and by the late 50s/early 60s
joined Joe Loss and Ted Heath as one of the country’s leading band leaders.
Love’s Manuel appellation allowed him an artistic freedom to draw influence
from South American music and, although early releases did not reveal its
creator’s identity (Love was ‘unmasked’ during a cameo appearance on BBC
television’s Juke Box Jury), such recordings later became the natural outlet
for his talents. A prodigious output, notably for EMI Records’ prestigious
Studio 2 stereo series, ensured that the band remained one of Britain’s most
popular light orchestral attractions throughout the 60s and 70s.

Dawn's promising skies
Petals on a pool drifting
Imagine these in one pair of eyes
And
this is my beloved
Strange spice from the south
Honey through the comb sifting
Imagine these on one eager mouth
And
this is my beloved.
And when she speaks
And when she talks to me
Music!
Mystery!
And when she moves
And when she walks with me
Paradise comes suddenly near
All that can stir, all that can stun
All that's for the heart's lifting
Imagine these in one perfect one
And this is my beloved
And this is my beloved.
