Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. Host Dave Gebroe talks with podcast OG Joe Kennedy about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output, with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release, including long-form interviews with both Johnny Echols and the members of Baby Lemonade, who’ve served as Love now for coming up on 35 years. 7 & 7 & 7 Is: The Definitive 21-Episode Story Of Arthur Lee & Love was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth, the almighty Love.

Part 16 covers a little-known but unbelievably fascinating era during which Arthur was afforded his final substantial opportunity, and what happened with that opportunity in Arthur’s dubiously capable hands.

Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

• Arthur Lee bringing the funk in a big way;
• The great lost Love song, and in many ways the true epilogue to Forever Changes;
• Arthur’s final big chance;
• What you get if you’re Eric Clapton and you’ve asked Arthur to open for you;
• That time Robert Plant and Jimmy Page swung by to meet Arthur;
• That time Arthur lived out of his car…but with a driver;
• And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on every song off Black Beauty and Reel To Real.
