Charles Manson Lie: The Love And Terror Cult

Charles Manson visited New York City in the early '60s with his guitar and his songs in a vain search for recognition. In Beverly Hills, famous musicians gave him their studio to produce this album. He has vocal backup from the women of the ''family''. During a stay in a San Francisco prison, he met a fellow inmate, and gave him the album to release. While Manson was being tried and convicted of participation in the murder spree, the government attempted to discredit the hippie movement by citing him as an example, hoping to defuse the rising tide of anger among the population over the war in Viet Nam.

Because his songs were considered musically and historically significant, this record was released briefly by ESP in 1974. For many years, all royalties were paid to the son of one of the victims to fulfill a judgment against Manson. - * ESP-Disk' reissue on cassette tape with sleeve - Look at Your Game, Girl, Ego, Mechanical Man, People Say I'm No Good, Home Is Where You're Happy, Arkansas, I'll Never Say Never to Always, Garbage Dump, Don't Do Anything Illegal, Sick, City, Cease to Exist, Big Iron Door, I Once Knew a Man, Eyes of a Dreamer
