Joe Belock is playing an Arthur Lee tribute on his WFMU show now. His show, Three Chord Monte, lasts until 3 pm EDT. I don't know how much of the show has been or will be dedicated to Lee because I just turned it on, but fear not gentle readers--it shall be archived soon. They usually get the shows up on the archives within several hours.
Update: Belock ended up playing about an hour of Lee and Lee-related material. Some of it fairly common, a couple tracks from the Live album from London a couple of years back, a popish '60s band playing one of his songs, but the most interesting thing to me was Lee singing and Jimi Hendrix playing lead guitar on a Lee composition. Don't get too excited if you want it to sound like Love or Jimi and the Experience, because it doesn't. It predates all of that, and in a way, it predates their becoming "Arthur Lee" and "Jimi Hendrix." The tribute starts about 20 minutes into the archive if you're interested.
