Songwriter Terry Melcher has died at the age of 62.
While Doris Day's son might have been famous for his songs "Mr. Tambourine Man" and the Beach Boys most annoying beach anthem "Kokomo," Melcher was better known as the producer who refused to record Charles Manson and whose house the Manson family thought they were at arriving at when they pulled up to 10050 Cielo Drive, went in and killed this...
I love the words of Bono in helter skelter [U 2 Rattle & Hum].
"This is a song that Charles Manson stole from the beetles, We’re stealing it back!
