    Dennis Wilson was seduced by Mansons women. And Brian once saw Manson and luckily they never met directly. I think Manson would have manipulated and scared Wilson who’s a very sensitive guy. He could have threatened him or blackmailed him even.
    Later Dennis Wilson just gave up and disappeared because he couldn’t control or stop Manson. He was lucky to survive Manson, too!

      According to engineer Steve desper, Charlie recorded close to 100 hours of tape at Brian’s home studio some time in 1968. It resulted in 6-8 polished songs, some of which allegedly include Brian, Carl and Dennis harmonizing behind Manson’s leads vocals. Could you imagine if this is true, what these songs might sound like?

      Nor should they have. Manson supposedly turned over the rights to his song to pay the exorbitant bills that the Family rang up while living at Dennis' Sunset Blvd house. Well over $100k and a lot of that were dr bills for treatment of STDs. I think Clem had totaled one of Dennis' cars too. But, who knows what's true in this case....

      I read or saw something about a satanic "church" being the inspiration for that particular song, with the "church" being portrayed/displayed on the album sleeve.

    Dennis picked up the girls hitchiking, took em to his place and they had group sex for days. The girls were very impressed with Dennis, he had a great house, a Ferrari, gold records. So he has a travelling gig, he comes home and there's Charlie, Tex, the whole Family in his house and they made it clear who the boss was--Charlie He wanted to be a rock star and wanted Dennis, Brian, Melcher, to hook him up in the business, but he was so far out there he weirded everyone out with his spookiness. He was willing to kill em all if he didn't get his way. This was enough to make Brian paranoid for years. He was scared of Charley and with good reason.

      Isn't it possible that Mike wasn't at Brian's house when Manson was there? Also, at times people can misremember things. Brian Wilson claims he never met John Lennon, but other people saw them corresponding at a party in the 70s. Brian introduced himself to John. When Brian left, John said they have met many times. Lol! Of course, Brian's memory has been damaged by drugs.

    well, we all know Mike's ways, but it's true that Manson shot a black guy although he didn't die. I doubt Dennis was present, but he sure heard the story first hand from whoever was involved. It's also credible telling a close cousin about something so scary you hear. Dates also fix perfectly.

      No. I think they should've given Dennis and Brian (70's, obviously) more control in the recording process.
      The mistake is having both of them perform live since the touring life back then was the most destructive thing you could do to a group with well documented mental and addiction issues.
