Bikers cuss. They spit. They've even been known to fight, once in a while, especially when losing at billiards. Didn't you once threaten to leave this blog over a few minor insults utilizing the word "c*nt"? May I suggest that you avoid patronizing any taverns which cater to motorcycle enthusiasts, lest you be terminally offended?<BR/><BR/>The "assault" in reform school -- payback to a boy for doing it to him first. Mr. BeauSoleil claims the ear incident didn't actually occur as reported, that HE himself slashed Hinman (a dope peddler) upside the head. And Ms. Lake is likely not the only biker's woman to ever mouth off and get herself b*tch-slapped. Try doing that to ME, and see what happens, hahaha! As for the humiliation and demoralization, if ya can't take the heat, then get off the Ranch. <BR/><BR/>None of which has anything, whatsoever, to do with a rejection of the commercialization of music, the media-drone mentality, and the related attributes of "success".<BR/><BR/>Pristash: At that time and place, in the world of "Hollywood Reporter" and "Tiger Beat", yes, Mr. and Mrs. Amerika would have been utterly stupefied by the accusation of all the drugs, wild sex, drugs, homosexuality, drugs, alcohol and drugs parading throughout Hollywood. Remember, this was the era in which Rock Hudson was not gay, and Doris Day was not using diet pills, and John Lennon was not on heroin, and Roman Polanski was not a pervert, and other states of denial. If Charles had divulged his entire catalogue of Hollywood gossip -- not to mention just exactly who was supplying all of those illegal drugs to the stars-- yeah, it'd be a shakeup, all right.<BR/><BR/>Of course, media whore that I am, I so totally would've used it for blackmail!A.C.

(it doesn't take much to accomplish that)<BR/>No movie will ever be able to do justice to a case of this nature. The film is now listed on imdb.com.<BR/>With good direction and the right cast it might be very good.<BR/><BR/>Ok, there are some inaccuracies and whatnot but its just a movie. I would certainly advocate and support that this film gets produced. Hopefully, it will reach the final stage.

He states that he is "not an entertainer", and that he fled the Beach Boys, Los Angeles and the whole corporate-based music scene for peace, spirit and ATWA.<BR/><BR/>I guess it depends on what is defined as successful... and may I politely suggest that you'all are promoting a false idea of what it is to succeed? <BR/><BR/>At our music fesivals, there are three levels of musicians. Those who perform a good set, offer demo CDs, sign autographs, and schmooze with record producers are destined to succeed on the commercial level. Those who get wasted, fight with security and indulge in major property damage, are likely to crash and burn early. And then there are those who facilitate musical seminars, offer the background music for religious ceremonies, demonstrate technique to beginners, and stay up late jamming around the bonfire with amateurs and professionals alike. The latter are the musicians whom I consider a success on a spiritual level, and that is the type of musician that Charles is.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps, Blipcrotch, it's possible to succeed *without* capitalization?<BR/><BR/>No, Force 17, I don't think the opportunity with Wilson was "wasted". Charles saw it as rescuing his own music, and thereby his own spirit.A.C.

One imagines that quite a few recognizable names had encounters with CM, yet there are few such stories circulating publicly. Dennis Wilson was heard near the end of his sad life saying how he refused to talk about those days out of respect for Sharon Tate, who he claimed to have known and liked very well. <BR/><BR/>Can you imagine what Dennis must have felt when he heard that CM was involved in her death? To what extent did he feel personally responsible for promoting CM and introducing him around, and what role did this play in his self-destructive behavior in the seventies?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14352935.post-12815761492327915172008-04-09T06:12:00.000-07:002008-04-09T06:12:00.000-07:00Can you imagine CM doing tours across the USA, bee...Can you imagine CM doing tours across the USA, been on time, playing the same set list, playing the corporate game, it was never going to happen.

I wonder if Charlie's comment that if the real motive were ever known it would shake Hollywood to the core is just him blowing smoke, playing it up big, as if he were much more substantially on the scene then he was. The Beach Boys and Neil Young are known to have hung out with CM, Melcher knew him and of course CM went to Cielo while he lived there, but no one has admitted that he and the girls hung out at parties at Cielo although it's long been rumored. Candace Bergen even wrote an autobiography which mentions Charlie but she could easily confirm or dispel any notion of such. In the absence of a confirmation, I would bet she'd dispel if asked.starshiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13207679706874165027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14352935.post-60839739100754673322008-04-08T15:54:00.000-07:002008-04-08T15:54:00.000-07:00Excellent post, Blip - very perceptive (to me at l...Excellent post, Blip - very perceptive (to me at least)<BR/><BR/>FrankFrankMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15929422641281493764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14352935.post-69938986323677831872008-04-08T15:22:00.000-07:002008-04-08T15:22:00.000-07:00I seem to remember reading someplace that Bobby B...I seem to remember reading someplace that Bobby B had been a 'friend' of FZ and sang back up on Zappa's 1968 album <I>Freak Out</I>. <BR/><BR/>I just checked the album - yes I still have it !! - but BB is not credited - not that that discounts the theory as it could have been a copyright thing or simply he was there at the recording.<BR/><BR/>So I checked out Bobby's own site and found the following:<BR/><BR/><I>Yes, it is that. Frank Zappa, another guy I made friends with in L.A., was a really interesting guy to me. In fact I was on his first album, just as a guest—the Freak Out album. I was one of the people yelling "Help, I'm a rock! Help, I'm a rock!" "We are the brain police!" and all those things. He just came and got me and a few of my friends off the street and put a microphone in front of us and had us do that. Frank Zappa came to the scene lampooning that sort of superficiality: "Brown Shoes Don't Make It," "Plastic People, You've Got to Go Now". . . that was the L.A. scene.</I>.<BR/><BR/>Check it out at http://www.beausoleil.net/mminterview.html<BR/><BR/>FrankFrankMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15929422641281493764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14352935.post-75297550415022373692008-04-08T14:17:00.000-07:002008-04-08T14:17:00.000-07:00This little excerpt of a bad script that will neve...This little excerpt of a bad script that will never be filmed does illustrate some worthwhile points. Few who have showbiz ambitions ever get the opportunity to mingle at the level CM was able to manage, and no one denies that a lot of people in the business thought CM had potential as a singer songwriter. So why was he unable to capitalize on this situation? I think he turned a lot of people off very quickly, having only two basic modes of social interaction: obsequious and menacing. At a basic level, he operated in the time honored manner of pimps throughout history and this would have been instantly apparent to sophisticated types and cause him to be dismissed. He walked into this world of media stars programmed for failure. I think this was a major cause of Charlie's frustration. Adherents of the "Charlie was angry at Hollywood" theory can see in this little sketch some of those dynamics at work. A good actor playing CM and a good actor playing FZ could illustrate this very well.<BR/><BR/>One would imagine that FZ knew Brian Wilson and by extension Dennis as well although I have not specifically read that this was so. Brian Wilson knows a lot I bet. <BR/><BR/>I did read somewhere that FZ had some dealings with the Family, as some of them were living in the back of his Laurel Canyon house and he had to kick them out in early 1968. Anyone know specifically if he ever met CM? Not too much of a stretch to think he did.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14352935.post-30111989259113019282008-04-07T12:34:00.000-07:002008-04-07T12:34:00.000-07:00Oh, man..I'll never be able to listen to "When You...Oh, man..I'll never be able to listen to "When You Say Love" again!starshiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13207679706874165027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14352935.post-12656598453862435392008-04-07T11:05:00.000-07:002008-04-07T11:05:00.000-07:00Post: AwesomeScript: Utterly beyond VileImage of S...Post: Awesome<BR/><BR/>Script: Utterly beyond Vile<BR/><BR/>Image of Sonny and Sadie: Hilarious.
