He even had a brief encounter with Charles Manson and his “family”. I think tat encounter was to score drugs, if I remember correctly.

More than an encounter. He was a Manson groupie.

I believe the story was that he picked up (gave a ride to) a few of the Manson girls, who were hitchhiking, a couple of times. Then, one night after an all night recording session he came home to find Charley and the whole family in his driveway. (That is not who you want to find in your driveway at 3 am :) )

No, that was Brian's younger brother Dennis (drummer).
