Brian’s just still bummed that his buddy Charlie Manson died a few years back.
Wasn’t that Dennis, and not Brian?
It was Dennis Wilson who had a relationship with Manson. Dennis arranged a recording session for him at Brian’s home studio. Brian and the rest of the BBs thought Manson was bad news.
On the Album “20/20” There’s a song “Never Learn Not to Love” credited to Dennis. It’s a reworking of a Manson song, “Cease to Exist.” Manson was not amused.
That was Dennis Wilson that was friends with him.
