Title: Umm What? Post by: FatherOfTheMan Sr101 on July 12, 2012, 05:49:42 PM Quote The band was also one of the most dysfunctional. The Loves were first cousins to Dennis Wilson, and Brian Wilson, the most creative of the band members. Dennis was forever linked to Charles Manson groupie Karen Valentine who took part in the Helter-Skelter murders. Wilson, a heavy drug user, was the leading songwriter in the band, but also a psychopath. He committed suicide in 1983. Brother Brian was repeatedly institutionalized for severe bouts with depression.

I think they were talking about Brian there (it's pretty badly written...) in which case I agree. Title: Re: Umm What?

Title: Re: Umm What? Post by: Kirk on July 13, 2012, 12:43:24 PM I'm writing Vincent Bugliosi right now to demand an explanation of how Karen Valentine avoided prison to star in Room 222 and Love American Style while Leslie Van Houten rots in jail.
(http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b370/Hunterism/karen-valentine-fabulous-female-celebs-of-the-past-11652058-400-248.jpg) Karen Valentine was my biggest prepubescent crush, by the way. Mainly bc all my mom's friends were teachers who looked exactly like her. The Idle Jets have a great tribute song to KV, btw: http://www.amazon.com/Idle-Jets-Karen-Valentine/dp/B0014CYBO4 Title: Re: Umm What?

Title: Re: Umm What? Post by: Ron on July 13, 2012, 08:15:46 PM Nope. She's way too attractive to be one of Charlie's girls. :)
Title: Re: Umm What? Post by: sockittome on July 15, 2012, 06:49:57 PM Oh, I think she coulda been on Charlie's Angels!
Title: Re: Umm What? Post by: drbeachboy on July 15, 2012, 06:52:50 PM Karen Valentine was on Charlie's Angels? No, she was on "Karen" and "Room 222". |
