艺人介绍

Charles Manson应该算是20世纪美国乃至全球最有名的一个变态杀人狂.

他最有名的一宗案是残杀了著名导演波兰斯基的身孕八个月的演员妻子莎朗-蒂(Sharon Tate).

关于他的故事网上有很多介绍,不在此大力渲染.

同时他同时是一位歌手,并且在60年代颇有些名气.到了能与Beatles,Beach Boy合作的级别.这是他69年录制70年发行的专辑, 也是他唯一的一张正式专辑.到了近几年他去世后陆续有些合辑一类的作品面世.专辑收录了14首歌,其中第11首cease to exit是和沙滩男孩合作的.

附送歌曲一首是Guns N Roses 93年的专辑"The spaghetti incident?"中收录但是没有写在曲目上的第13 首歌,翻唱Charles Manson的.另一首是 Marilyn Manson 的,这首歌的歌词参照了Charles Manson 的.

Marilyn Manson名字中的Manson也是来自Charles Manson.并且他的乐队每个成员都以Manson为名.

A living, walking example of the hippie dream gone terribly awry, before Manson and his family went on the killing spree that virtually undermined and eventually destroyed the peaceful atmosphere of the Southern California community, the fledgling musician tried several times unsuccessfully to land a recording contract.

First venturing to California in the mid '50s, Manson soon found himself serving yet another stint in prison (by age 30 he had lived half of his life behind bars). But, after a time spent living in Washington state, Manson arrived in Southern California in 1967 in hopes of becoming a hippie singer-songwriter. Settling in Topanga Canyon, the quasi prophet met several of L.A.'s most prominent musicians including Neil Young, Dennis Wilson and Doris Day's son, producer Terry Melcher. The very idea that someone like Manson was fraternizing with a Beach Boy and the son of Doris Day is indicative of the blurred reality that existed in Southern California at the time. Yet, though his music and views are easily dismissable today, at the time several people in the community, including Neil Young, believed in Manson enough to try and secure him a record contract. Throughout 1968 Manson made demo tapes with Gregg Jakobson and Terry Melcher and, with the influence of Dennis Wilson, came close to inking a deal with Brother Records, the imprint of the Beach Boys. In fact, the group reworked Manson's "Cease To Exist," re-titling it "Never Learn Not to Love" and included it on their 20/20 LP. By 1969, however, Manson and his family of hippie outcasts had suitably scared away any potential recording contracts with their increasingly disturbing behavior and Manson never released an album of his work as a free man.

After his arrest, however, the impending media blitz of the trial created interest in Manson's music, albeit for somewhat dubious reasons, and fringe labels such as Performance and White Devil released his albums such as Lie and Commemoration. Manson also saw one of his songs recorded by the biggest rock n' roll band in the world at that time when Guns n' Roses included a poorly recieved Manson composition on their 1993 covers album, the Spaghetti Incident?
