    That scene , the Summer of Love bit , commune considerations and actual communes , micro-communes ,,, that sort of thing , were Far more sexist , misogynistic and in general more caveman-archaic than the middle-America household and classroom young people were trying to move away from. I’d venture to say , in pockets , it was just as racially messed up as well. The way I see it (saw it) just about the entire “movement” functioned as a way for 18-40 year old white dudes to get lots of sex. And if a woman didn’t want to , she was loudly deemed frigid and uptight. EDIT: And that’s why it bugs the hell out of me when it gets romanticized .

    I was in California (Berkeley) not long after the murders, in the fall of 69. At the time, no one had been charged with the murders, so there was no apparent connection to the counter culture, and no one on the street (Telegraph Ave. and the Berkeley campus), paid the murders any mind. I don't remember anyone ever speaking about it. I mean, it certainly wouldn't occur to any of us peace and love freaks that anyone connected to the culture would go out and kill a movie starlet and her friends. Little did we know. It wasn't long after I left California (I'd made my way as far south as Big Sur, and hung out there for awhile, before I was unceremoniously busted for hitch hiking on the coast highway), that it came to light who was involved with the murders. By then I was back in Toronto Canada. In retrospect, Charlie was certainly quite the character. Too bad he couldn't figure out a way to make a more serious go of it with his musical talent. Things would likely not have ended so tragically. Apropos, I've recently written and recorded a cheeky, country-style musical hommage to Charlie, titled, CHARLIE MANSON'S MANSION ("It's a little bit helter skelter, but I know he's gonna gimme shelter"). Lol. Featuring the voice of Willie Nelson (a bit of automated voice substitution there).

One can see the build up of disappointments and even the twisted logic of diverting attention from Charlie's connection with the drug deal gone wrong.

    The Hippies movement was already in its death throws when Manson come along. Heroin had undermined it in SF and NYC, and it was starting to become more of a "Fashion Statement" then anything else. My mom(who was pregnant with me in 70' in San Diego) said she walked into Sears and saw women of her Parents' generation buying Flower dresses and short skirts and beaded jewelry she knew it was no longer counter culture, but had been turned it into a product of industry.(or something along those lines). She did say after the Tate murders and then a few years later Kemper murders that fear was the word of the day for young women in Southern California, and everyone started locking their doors at night and during the day, and putting bars of their windows(which you can still see today on SoCal houses newly built in the early 70s..we were in Santa Cruz or Fresno at that point).

    The Manson murders were a perfect storm and created by the times, much like Star 80. I think this piece is the most accurate depiction of what motivated Charles Manson. This story is so layered and all comes down to how fame and hubris can spawn disaster when the right circumstances arise. He was created by the system, he was dissed by the system, and innocent people that the system created paid with their lives when it all came home to roost.

    Conflicting stories about whether or not he was into speed. Some say he was, but others say he was not. Tex and Susan kept a hidden stash of the stuff for their own use and according to them, they had to keep it hidden because Charlie was against them taking it. I’ve also read that when it occasionally came time for the Family to clean up after themselves at Spahn Ranch in addition to chores related to the day to day operations of the ranch they helped with, they would take speed to get it all done faster and Charlie encouraged it. So who knows.

    Someone left the cake out in the rain. Manson comes to the studio audition with an acoustic guitar and a bunch of girls. Whereas he required an accomplished band with him to perform his tunes, of which he would have required to have had about 30 of such, with the studio producers omitting about 17 as less viable and the viable 13 tracks are re-choreographed, re-worked, studio musicians subsequently used, if necessary, until a passable set is presented to Terry Melcher. None of this was done. Neither party, the studio or Manson, did their homework on it.

    actually, Alvin Karpis , formerly of the Barker/Karpis gang (who was said to give Manson guitar lessons in prison)said of him (paraphrasing), "If Charlie could stay out of trouble long enough, he may have done fairly well in music." the end there, 'Clang Bang Clang' was interesting. I think his suggestion to just " let tape roll, and cut out what'cha don't want" or something like that, was a good idea for his sometimes rough around the edges, style. 'Garbage Dump' was also good. at one time, I wouldn't praise his stuff in any way, but I recall that it was all recorded well before the murders. just a guy making music.

    Charles Manson wasn't at the crime scene of the Tate murders as far as investigator's know. The Tate residence did have a knife and a pair of reading glasses that were found during the investigation and the victims didn't own either one. The next night Charles Manson told: Charles Tex Watson, Patricia Krenwinkel, Leslie Van Houton, and Linda Kasabian(only driver that had a valid driver's license) to get into the car and instructed Linda which house to go to. Manson then got out of the car and broke into the LaBianca's house and tied them up with leather tongs (strap's). The couple were assured by Manson they wouldn't be harmed. Once outside he told his followers to go inside the house and do what needs to be done. Manson would have been charged with: Breaking in Entry and False Imprisonment if Rosemary and Leo hadn't been killed. Did Manson go to the Tate residence to see what his followers did and was false evidence planted by him ? The answer to these questions are unknown to this day. The investigator's had a hard time finding the suspects in the senseless murders. The Investigator's had their big break after the Manson family had been arrested once again for auto theft. The first time the family was arrested was about 2 wks after the murders (August 1969) but were let go by the police because the date on the arrest warrant was wrong. The family were then taken into custody in December of 1969 again for auto theft. Susan Atkins went went bat shit crazy and told her 2 roommate's what she did and how she loved killing Sharon Tate and the rest is history.

    Im a huge fan to this day of the Byrds, but even Mr Tambourine Man an perhaps that whole album was musicality performed by the wrecking crew. Most songs being done in 1 or 2 takes. When the Byrds recorded Turn Turn Turn playing the instruments themselves it took over 60 takes to get a good one!
