Unfortunately, I don't have those records.

But as far as I can tell, he never made a record as the leader (aside from Spike Lee soundtracks)?

I recollect seeing Bill Lee at the Caravan of Dreams in 1991. He was the leader of the group (all younger players, I don't recall any names) and they played his compositions. He was very impressive, both as a bassist and composer.
