Doris Day, who’s son Terry Melcher produced the The Beach Boys, and who narrowly escaped death at the hands of Charles Manson. Sharon Tate and her friends were murdered because she had the poor fortune to be renting the house that Melcher lived in when he turned Manson down for a recording contract.
I worked with Mark Lindsay, who lived in that house with Terry and Terry’s girlfriend at the time - Candace Bergen.
Apparently, had Candy not broken up with Terry, they wouldn’t have moved out and leased it to Polanski and Tate.
He said that Charlie showed up to a few of their parties there.
