Arthur Lee, the songwriter and singer for the band Love recently lost his long struggle with Leukemia.


Love may be little-known, but please do yourself a favor and pick up at the very least their album Forever Changes. One of the great unknown gems of the psychedelic era, it can rightfully claim to be one of the best ever.


Robert Plant cited Lee in his induction to the Rock and Roll hall of fame and even lead a benefit concert for him. Syd Barrett often said that Lee and Love were a huge influence on Pink Floyd forming as well as on their original sound.


R.I.P.


A house is not a motel.

Arthur Lee was brilliant. And the fact that not everyone has heard Forever Changes is sad. That is quite possibly my favorite album.
