Rocker Arthur Lee died of Leukemia at age 61. A self-described ‘Black Hippie,’ Arthur Lee’s band Love released some of the most influential music of the 1960s. Mr. Lee sang the title songs on Haskell Wexler’s counter-culture classic "Medium Cool" as well as Gordon Parks blaxploitation Western "Thomasine & Bushrod." Mr. Lee’s music was used on such soundtracks as "Bottle Rocket," "High Fidelity," "Point Break," "I Shot Andy Warhol" and "Hideous Kinky." |
