This is an atempt to gather as much information as possible about Arthur Lee and the members of Love through the years. I know this is not complete and therefore I would request that anyone with any additional information please send it to me. I'm working on a comprehensive, and complete list of all of Love's tours - past, present and future -- and need a lot of dates, so please take a look and see if you can help me with some. I also need any and all information about setlists if you have any. I have many questions regarding recordings and other things so it would be great if you could contact me if you see any mistakes or have any additions that will make this a better website. These pages couldn't have been made without help from a lot of
Love fans all over the world. Thanks to all of
you.
If you intend to use any of the scans, photos, posters or anything else
from my site, please contact me. NEWS & UPDATES: August 22. 2010: If you were not one of people who were able to attend the book promo

Jay Donnelan very sick. Please help if you can. Just got this in an e-mail: Dear Friends, I am writing this letter on behalf of our dear friend Jay Donnellan.
His condition is grave and he could use our help as soon as possible.
As some of you might know Jay has been suffering for many years. He
has intense seizures daily, gaining in intensity when he goes to bed.
Over the years he has seen numerous doctors and specialists trying to
solve the mystery. At times the symptoms have quieted depending on the
treatment, but the exact cause has never been correctly pinpointed.
Until now. Again, some of you may or may not know that Jay's previous wife,
Annie Waterhouse, has just suddenly and tragically passed away. The
autopsy revealed the cause to be Cerebral Vasculitis. It is a very rare
condition with a wide range of symptoms that mimic several other
diseases (MS, Lupus etc). The stunner is that, as it turns out, Jay and
Annie were both suffering in almost identical ways. Sadly Annie's body
couldn't handle it, but Jay is still holding on. He is rapidly going
downhill however. To complicate matters in a most horrible way, one year ago Jay had a
seizure that resulted in a badly broken neck. He had a first surgery to
repair and plate the fractures. He now needs the second and urgent
finishing surgery to smooth the vertebrae and do the final positioning
that will take the stress off his spinal cord. This is a parallel
problem that severely complicates him getting treatment for the Cerebral
Vasculitis. He's bed ridden and is on morphine for the extreme pain. His living and insurance situation is this. He lives in Costa Rica
with a new wife Maria Elena and her two girls. He is in the national
health care system, BUT because of the current financial woes in every
corner of the globe, and because he is not a national and newly in the
system, he has been put at the bottom of the waiting list. Possibly a
year away! He won't survive that kind of wait. The good news is that he can expedite a surgery at a private clinic
with the same world class neurosurgeon that started his surgeries in
quick order. But, it will cost him cash which he don't quite have enough
of. $3000 is what was needed. Jay just informed me that two dear friends
in Mexico, Oscar and Deana have donated half of that, so all he needs
now is $1,500. So, I'm putting out the S.O.S. for a little bit of help from anyone
who can afford to. Believe me Jay is well aware of the downturn here in
the States and is embarrassed by this whole situation, and at a time
like this. I believe that if everyone can chip in a little, $1,500 won't
be hard to raise. But he needs it in the next day or two! Jay asked that you can set your own terms and that the help can be a
gift, a loan, or any other plan you want. But he needs this now, and
it's the only way we can think of to get him the surgery he needs to
continue his fight. The easiest way to make a donation is a deposit through PayPal. Jay's PayPal account is the same as his email -donnellansouth@hotmail.com If you have questions and/or want more details, please feel free to
call me and I will fill in to the best of my ability. Thank You,

A word about copyrights on these pages
This entire Web Site is the result of much time and hard work by the author, who
exercises his copyright over the site as a whole.
Obviously, due to the very nature of the site, much of the content is copied
from other sources. Where known, the copyright holder and/or author has been
acknowledged. However, in no instance have I sought
permission for the use of any part of these copyrighted items, and I am
therefore probably in breach of every copyright law under the sun.
I say this in my defence: that (A) as a lay-person, I wouldn’t have the faintest
idea of how or from where to obtain permission, (B) that this site is provided
as a well-meant tribute to a musical and lyrical geniuses, and (C) if the
copyright holders don’t want their stuff copied and published on the web by me,
then they should start their own Arthur Lee and Love
web pages, and save me the time and trouble! If this all gets too heavy, I can
see me packing it in and not bothering.
