Yikes!

Phil Spector - Manson Courts Spector Behind Bars - Contactmusic News: "Jailed music producer PHIL SPECTOR has been targetted behind bars by killer CHARLES MANSON, who wants his help launching a singing career.

Spector, serving a 19-year sentence for the murder of actress Lara Clarkson, has been moved to the same California prison as Manson, who was jailed for life for masterminding the 1969 murders of actress Sharon Tate and her friends Leno and Rosemary LaBianca.

Manson was a wannabe rocker before the murders, and Spector's wife claims the cult leader has hounded her husband for musical tips."

Wasn't there a Manson theory that he sent the "family" to one of those houses in revenge for one of the party's ignoring Manson's genius?

JD Rhoades said...

Gerard, I think the person they were trying to get revenge on (record producer Terry Melcher) was a former tenant in the house.

Todd Mason said...

Melcher supposedly owed them money for drugs, iirc. (Word verification: ingrate. Wow.)
