Is that Charlie singing, in the background?

DebS said...

I do believe it was Charlie and it was awful! He wasn't playing his A-game that day.

It is interesting footage, I paused and looked closer at things more than once. Is that Randy Starr walking with George Spahn?

That is Randy

Farflung said...

Who is behind Watkins (6:55-6:59)?

This could become a new version of ‘Where’s Waldo’ with the striped shirt and spectacles being replaced with Paisley and an epic beard.

DebS said...

Thanks Cielo!! I thought so. There are so few pictures of Randy, this is a nice surprise.

DebS said...

Farf, I think it's Ross. Looks like the same paisley shirt in a picture posted here-

I liked Charlie's singing better than some of his other work.

Patty guesses that you can put just about anything in a tortilla and its gonna taste good...love your avatar, Deb

It is Mark Ross behind Paul

I've always thought that Manson sang fairly well for a psychotic, misogynistic, bigoted murderer.

I like that music. It sounds like a drone coming straight from his subconscious. Sets a mood for the video.

Sadie Mae Glutz was purposely shaking her booty when walking in that pink minidress. It is so weird. It some photos, she looked pretty (in a psycho kind of way), and in other photos/videos she looked hideous. She could change her appearance constantly. Of course, hair & makeup, plus access to a daily shower in the jail had a lot to do with it.

I always found Sadie gross. I never understood why anyone called her sexy. Her features were really unattractive, at least in the classical sense, and she was often sporting a pretty thick 'stache. Tweezers must have been about .20 back then. I guess nobody complained.
Spahn's looked pretty crusty in this too! And yet the mystique holds strong. Hmm.

lol- Agree with Jason- they always said Katie had a hairy body- but I always thought Sadie showed that trait more so...

at least in quite a few of the pics...

Personally to me- none of the girls who lived and slept in dirt and rarely bathed, and had well documented cases of VD who must have smelled god awful- would have been attractive...

I notice in this video the babies again...

I wonder how long in our politically correct society today it would take for child protective services to get in there and get the kids out of that mess???

feces in the refrigerator, 30 year old ex con-s hanging around, drugs, stolen car parts and the criminals who took them, bikers raring in and out, and group sex and disease occurring quite frequently...

great place to raise a child

sigh....

AustinAnn74 said...

Have you seen the photos of Katie walking to/from jail? Did you see her legs? Wow! Hair-eeeee.

Hey what's wrong with bikers?

St. Circumstance said...

nothing is wrong with Bikers

but the type of Bikers who were hanging around Spahn ranch (there only to drink,screw,fight or party in some manner) in conjunction with the drugs and thief's and disease and filth...

did not - in my opinion- create the most positive environment for babies to be raised....

AustinAnn74 said...

Did I say something against bikers? I thought I was talking about Pat Knenwinkel's hairy legs. Hmmm....
