Unfortunately, these "greats" are finally dying-off.<br /><br />Isn't it strange where any kind of "new" music scene is always met with distain and even hatred by the older established generation. This of course, always creates a great divide, but I think the Manson Family music caused confusion because it was a blend of older "establishment" with "young" stuff.'<br /><br />Robert Hendricksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02880909248364077567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8171370990642927748.post-2275732499429311612016-04-03T09:40:30.621-04:002016-04-03T09:40:30.621-04:00Zig, thx for posting that bit re: The Stones.

Jagger, still a young pup in full throat with all his dance moves intact. The ever stoned Keith proving you can play when you are fully loaded. Mick Taylor as the other lead/rhythm guitar player, back when we didn't realize how great he was. Jim Price on trumpet forming a horn section with mega player Bobby Keys. Nicky Hopkins on piano, with Watts and Wyman holding the beat and keeping 'em all in the pocket.<br /><br />What could be better than that? How 'bout Stevie Wonder as the opening act and joining the Stones on a couple encores?<br /><br />A tour de force for sure.<br /><br />Bellz, if you can figure out what BB's axe was, bring it on.<br /><br />Now back to TLB?Shorty's pistolshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09606672298731718462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8171370990642927748.post-74877205020164752652016-04-02T23:37:51.491-04:002016-04-02T23:37:51.491-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.TomGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17647303118718364687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8171370990642927748.post-67782995122590830722016-04-02T15:14:26.051-04:002016-04-02T15:14:26.051-04:00Robert Hendrickson said...

AND Mark Ross (guitar-singer-songwriter). SO. IF others were "allowed" to play and CLEM was even allowed to be the "Lead" singer on the 1970 Family Jams "record," seems to ME the Melcher / Manson "recording contract" theory was just another made-up STORY, which in the eyes of a reasonable thinking person conflicts with ANY "race WAR" motive.<br /><br />BUT I can just hear Melcher telling Bugliosi: "I'm this Mr.Big music producer in Hollywood, so of course, Charlie Manson would be kissing MY ass for a recording contract. I never had to fuck HIS women, because I had hundreds of women at my feet, cause you see - I'm this BIG music man."<br /><br />Funny, I had never made a full length motion picture when I started filming "MANSON."<br />BUT on the eve of the first day I did contact American International Pictures to see if they wanted in. Answer: "NO." BUT back then, not like now, it wasn't like "Crying for Mommy" every time YOU were rejected.<br /><br />AFTER all these years, the more I nit-pick at the Prosecution's story, the more I SEE Swiss Cheese.<br /><br />Unless, YOU buy into the "multi-combo" MOTIVE theory. At least LBJ gave us a reasonable excuse for igniting the Vietnam WAR.

Clem was the logical candidate for the job because of his good voice and playing prowess.<br /><br />Charlie's music as played and sung by Charlie isn't that impressive. The lyrics are often very trite, as evidenced by "Eyes of a Dreamer". "Look at Your Game, Girl" is just Charlie's pimp rap set to music, with a rough vocal. "Cease to Exist" isn't much of a tune, again some CM philosophy with a weak vocal.<br /><br />I've been curious, Danny DeCarlo and other family people always rave about another Manson tune that he sang around the campfire. The people that heard it call it Manson's best song, but I can't figure out which one it is. Anyone know what tune DDD is referring to?

Especially when music was such a big thing in Charlie's world. It's as if HE was helping to promote Clem's special talent. Just listen to "Where the Eagle Flies." That recording still gives me goose bumps.<br /><br />PS: I was told by the Producer of the Ron Reagan Show that Clem was making a decent living selling his music, like on the Family Jams, AFTER he got out of prison. Anyone have a copy that Clem was peddling then ?<br /><br />Robert Hendricksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02880909248364077567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8171370990642927748.post-22679533693867871822016-04-01T02:48:43.977-04:002016-04-01T02:48:43.977-04:00The only instrument Bobby should be allowed to pla...The only instrument Bobby should be allowed to play is the skin flute.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11155321496694081026noreply@blogger.com
