leukemia got him.
he was 61.
I was so excited when he got out of jail and everything.
too bad things didn't turn around for that guy.

martha predicts he's gonna be way more famous in a couple years than he is now.
it'll take a few more "black hippies" but it'll happen or my name isn't martha washington.

Sad, sad news. He was a monster talent, and has had a huge influence that I don't think has been adequately acknowledged. After all, I only learned in the last few years how important Love was to the rock era.

Most sad indeed. I heard about it this afternoon. I also only learned recently how important Love was. RIP Arthur.

I grew up with "Forever Changes" and decided a while back that it was in my top 50 of all time. So I was quite bummed to hear about this.

"Da Capo" is also another fine album, and their first one isn't bad either.
