Notes
This LP represents recordings made by Charles Manson prior to the Tate-Labianca Murders. There was some speculation at the time that a record producer who had previously owned the Tate home, and who had earlier rejected Manson's recordings, was the intended target. However, this theory was subsequently disproven. Every producer Manson had approached with his recordings ultimately received death threats at one time or another, and it was subsequently shown that Manson had targeted for assassination a number of famous recording artists whose only crime was their success.
Recorded: 9/11/1967 Overdubs: 8/9/1968
