Posted - 10/11/2010 : 16:48:05 Anyone read this at Lennon's site?
"Rethinking John Lennon's Assassination/The FBI's War On Rock Stars"
Quite interesting if not unbelievable, but there is quite an extensive "case study" of LoVE members and their deaths and associations, such as with the Manson connection.
Also, deaths discussed in detail-Janis Joplin, Nancy Nevins of Sweetwater, Brian Jones and a few others.
What do you all think?
http://www.jfkmontreal.com/john_lennon/Chapter14.htm
Not much on Morrison here, but a fascinating read...concerning untimely deaths of 82 rock stars or related deaths to rock figures and the clusters of deaths surrounding certain events.

Bummer Bob, as we all knew him, (not "Cupid") was nothing more than an asterisk, during the groups Grassroots period. Never ever, was he associated with LOVE.
Can you imagine Arthur, (or anyone in the group) having a beer with, or even talking too, the personification of evil, known as Charles Manson? He is a racist, opportunistic, low-life, delusional dwarf. They wouldn't have even acknowledged his presence!
On the out-takes of the LOVE dvd, Johnny talks at length, about "Bummer Bob" and the group's relationship with him, and how he (Bobby) was afraid of some guy named Charlie.
It's clear, that neither Arthur, or Johnny... ever hung-out with, or even knew a Charles Manson existed, prior to his orchestrating that orgy of death in North Hollywood. The kind of manufactured nonsense, speculation and misinformation emanating from these kinds of books, have given this group so much grief. This so-called writer, should find a more appropriate job... cleaning cesspools, and leave writing to those who are rational.

AMEN! Well put, gatemouth!

Posted - 18/11/2010 : 18:05:54 What bothers me is that there are readers at that site for whom this drivel is their first introduction to Arthur & LoVE....sad really.

Posted - 16/11/2010 : 15:00:48 Well I think all of us here might have to be a on "veracity" patrol for the next few years when it comes to the "facts" of Love after reading some of what was written....next thing is they'll be saying Arthur was really an alien... |

BTW, the speculation here about Love and "the Spiral Staircase" and the Satanic Castle is so much bull****, it is unbelievable....this guy is so full of speculation and guesswork & himself....but thought you all might find it intereesting!!
Lee/Morrison and Manson were drinking buddies?!!! Holy ****!! What a load of crap!
KD: Boy, what a load of crap indeed ! Just finished this chapter on LOVE. Talk about a lot of "woulda, coulda, shoulda"
"Perhaps this, and perhaps that". Arthur Lee and Charles Manson, drinking buddies and hanging out ? Doesn't this clown know Manson was an ARCH Racist ? He forbid his family from ever even listening to Jimi Hendrix apparently. Can't see him putting up with LOVE records either. |

KD: Further to these types of conspiracy rumors, over at the huge Jimi Hendrix portal / site Crosstown Turrents there were pages and pages of conspiracy theories on how Jimi was "offed" by his sinister manager Mike Jeffery, reported to have had ties with British Secret Agents / MI5, The CIA, the MAFIA, German Hells Angels, and anyone else you want to add.
The theories are that Jeffery's "agents" waterboarded Jimi to death with red wine, and then covered it all up for the last 40 years with the help of UK Intelligence. All part of the "covert" war on rock.
Yea, right. What a load of crap.

Posted - 11/11/2010 : 16:35:56 Love named after "Cupid"-- the almost guitar player?!! I don't think Arthur would name HIS band after a guy who sat in for a couple of sets...come on! Arthur feeling bad about letting someone go in the best interest of the group?!! NAH!
Could Manson's personal henchman (this guy's source) be a bit delusional? Now that would be a stretch....!!
I am almost sorry I found this site. PLEASE! This article may be harmful to your LOVE! Take it all with a grain of salt ...or a boatload of bullst#t!! So put on your hip-boot waders....
MarkK....it changed your day? Hopefully not about Love. We all know about the Hoover era FBI and cross dressing....but really, none of this has ever been mentioned in any Love bio.....so I ask also--who is this Salvator Austacia and WTF is he talking about?!!!

Posted - 11/11/2010 : 16:17:39 This is unbelievable. Is this something just released or old? Who is this guy Salvador Austacia? Sometimes ya gotta just Let it Be. This may sound rediculous, but this has changed my whole day. |

Posted - 11/11/2010 : 14:17:16 From that writer... "MacLean’s death is a bit suspicious because, according to writer Barney Hoskyns, he was in excellent physical condition in 1996, two years before his death, running five miles a day".
Well anybody learning about Maclean or Love or Arthur etc for the first time no doubt will latch onto this one. And the stories then will go on to a life...who knows where.
