Dieses treibende Schlagzeug-Intro und der gnadenlose Synthesizer-Bass jagen bis heute jeden auf die Tanzfläche. Aber wusstet ihr, dass dieser Mega-Hit von Blondie eigentlich für eine ganz andere Rock-Ikone geschrieben wurde, die ihn wegen Knebelverträgen ablehnen musste? Und dass die Band im Studio so heftig stritt, dass der Produzent entnervt das Handtuch warf? Und warum gibt es eigentlich 2 Musikvideos? Erfahrt Ihr alles in dieser Folge.

Dans cette édition de L'album du week-end, Margaux Lassalle met à l'honneur le troisième album de Blondie, "Parallel Lines". Sorti en 1978, ce disque de la consécration pour le groupe américain réussit le pari audacieux de fusionner new wave, punk et disco. Une formule intemporelle et stylée qui lui a valu d'être classé par le magazine "Rolling Stone" parmi les 500 plus grands albums de tous les temps. L'anmatrice de la station Pop-Rock retrace les sommets et les anecdotes de ce grand classique de la fin des années 70. Du cocktail power pop redoutable de la reprise "Hanging on the Telephone" à l'énergie brute d'"I know But I don't know", en passant par l'immense tube disco-new wave "Heart of Glass", l'album enchaîne les succès. On y découvre notamment que la balade "Sunday Girl" a été écrite par le guitariste Chris Stein en hommage au chat disparu de la chanteuse Debbie Harry, ou encore que le célèbre "One Way Or Another" s'inspire directement d'une inquiétante histoire de harcèlement vécue par l'artiste, ici transformée avec brio en un morceau léger et entêtant.

Miss Heard celebrates Season 7, Episode 353, where it dives into Kim Wilde's breakout 1981 hit “Kids in America,” the new wave anthem that launched one of the most successful careers of any British female solo artist of the 1980s. We explore how the song was written by her father Marty Wilde and brother Ricky Wilde, the synth-pop influences behind its iconic sound, and the fascination with American youth culture that inspired its lyrics. Along the way, we look at Wilde's remarkable chart success, her comparisons to Blondie's Debbie Harry, and the lasting legacy of a song that continues to resonate more than four decades later.

Gary Lachman in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.amazon.co.uk/Touched-Presence-Blondies-Bowery-Occult/dp/B0DSV388DQ https://www.gary-lachman.com/ https://garylachman.co.uk/ In this memoir, Lachman recounts how he went from being a successful rock and roller to a writer on consciousness and the Western inner tradition. He shares encounters with rockers such as the Ramones, New York Dolls, Patti Smith, the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, and Iggy Pop and also his time with Timothy Leary, William Burroughs, and Allen Ginsberg. Living with Blondie's Debbie Harry and Chris Stein on New York's Bowery, a block from CBGB, the birthplace of punk rock, Lachman discovered occultism via a follower of Aleister Crowley. Post rock and roll, Lachman's occult studies brought him to the Golden Dawn, Manly P. Hall, Gnosticism, and a stint in Crowley's O.T.O. He details his time in the Fourth Way, including a visit to the site of Gurdjieff 's Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man in France, and his years studying philosophy and literature and working as a science writer while managing a famous metaphysical bookshop at the height of the New Age movement. Excursions to Stonehenge, Avebury, and Glastonbury in search of ley lines and pilgrimages to Colin Wilson's home in Cornwall are a few of the highlights of this introspective, often humorous account of a nascent writer's struggle from rock and roll to individuation.

On a tous une image qui nous vient en tête quand on parle des années 80. C'est vrai. Il faut dire que cette décennie n'a manqué ni d'excès, ni de clichés. Le brushing de Bonnie Tyler et des Duran Duran, les fringues de Prince et de Madonna, les biceps de Stallone et Schwarzie, et les synthés de Human League et Soft Cell.Ainsi en avril 1982, le premier et énorme tube de ces derniers vaut à la New Wave d'occuper toute la place au point de résumer ce très large mouvement à cet unique instrument qu'est le synthétiseur. Et le nouveau média qu'est le vidéoclip impose leur image proprette avec jolies filles et mecs sexy à la pose bien étudiée.Alors qui est cette fille qui débarque de nulle part avec un morceau dont le riff de guitare coupe comme une tronçonneuse de bûcheron canadien ? C'est vrai, Joan Jett, avec son look de rockeuse, sa voix râpeuse et son accent sale, n'a rien du stéréotype féminin du moment. En regardant son vidéoclip, le message est clair : elle ne cherche pas à plaire, ni tout simplement, à paraître.Ainsi dans le métier, personne n'a voulu d'elle. Car, et ça va étonner tout le monde, elle ne déboule pas de nulle part avec son hymne. Et oui, à 23 ans, cette New Yorkaise a déjà bien roulé sa bosse de rockeuse : au cours des années 70, elle faisait en effet partie d'un groupe hard rock 100% fille nommé les Runaways.Les Runaways, c'est plus des pochettes de 33 Tours, qui traînaient dans les bacs des disquaires que des disques qu'on a écouté. Il est vrai que le visuel laissait présager le produit préfabriqué, si vous voyez ce que je veux dire. Joan n'avait que 17 ans quand le premier album des Runaways est sorti, le groupe n'a pas fait long feu, on ne les a pas vraiment prises au sérieux. Un groupe rock 100% féminin, ça ne pouvait pas exister, c'est un truc de mecs.Un groupe masculin avec une chanteuse, comme Blondie, avec une Debbie Harry, belle à hurler, et quelques tubes par album, oui, ça, les firmes de disques en veulent bien.Alors, quand les Runaways disparaissent en 1979 et que Joan Jett, la guitariste chanteuse, trouve un gars qui croit en elle pour la produire, et ben, ils restent tous les deux avec leurs bandes de studio sur les bras. 23 refus, vous le croyez, ça. Nous sommes alors en 1981, Kenny Laguna, c'est son nom, même si vous ne le retenez pas, qu'il soit cité, il le mérite, car sans lui, vous n'auriez jamais entendu I love rock'n'roll, et ben, il ne se démonte pas, le gars. Puisqu'ils ne veulent pas de notre disque, on va créer notre label et le vendre nous-mêmes après les concerts. Car il y a quand même des gars pour embaucher l'ancienne Runaways, heureusement.Alors, à force de jouer et convaincre, une maison de distribution offre de placer le disque partout et d'aller frapper à la porte de la toute jeune chaîne de télé MTV avec un clip en noir et blanc. Le public, c'est-à-dire nous, allons découvrir cette fille de cuir traversant une rue américaine qui n'a rien de glamour, et on va la suivre dans un bar à vieux néons qui appartient encore à la décennie précédente. C'est sale, brut, punk, on les avait presque déjà oubliés. Joan Jett a les traits durs d'une fille qui a déjà dormi dans un van et cassé des cordes de guitare. Elle n'a pas attendu qu'on lui ouvre la porte, elle a apporté la sienne et on la suit toujours aussi volontiers quatre décennies plus tard à chaque fois que la chanson démarre, comme ceci.

¿Qué hace que una fotografía sea inolvidable? En este video exploramos la vida y obra de Robert Mapplethorpe, un artista que no solo capturó imágenes, sino que "esculpió con la luz" para alcanzar la perfección formal.Desde sus icónicos retratos en blanco y negro hasta sus polémicos trabajos en la escena S&M de Nueva York, analizamos cómo Mapplethorpe utilizó la simplicidad, el encuadre deliberado y la iluminación escultórica para transformar sujetos orgánicos en piezas de arte eterno.Lo que aprenderás en este video:• La técnica del "Cincel": Cómo usar la luz para crear formas visuales fuertes, tratando el cuerpo humano como si fuera mármol u obsidiana.• El poder del encuadre: Lecciones de sus retratos a Grace Jones y Debbie Harry sobre cómo hacer que el sujeto sea la "estrella del show" mediante el contraste y la eliminación de distracciones.• Flores como retratos: El enfoque "retratístico" de sus bodegones, donde cada flor tiene personalidad y simbolismo, explorando desde el esplendor hasta la decadencia.• Arte vs. Censura: El impacto de las "guerras culturales", el juicio por obscenidad en Cincinnati y cómo la transgresión consolidó su estatus de ícono.¿Te apasiona la fotografía de retrato o el arte contemporáneo? No olvides suscribirte y dejar un comentario: ¿Crees que la intención del artista justifica el contenido polémico, o debería haber límites en el arte financiado con fondos públicos?.#RobertMapplethorpe #Fotografía #HistoriaDelArte #PattiSmith #ComposiciónFotográfica #ArteContemporáneo #Censura #LeccionesDeFotografía

A Note from James:In the Blondie song “Rapture,” which was the number-one song in 1981, Debbie Harry has this famous line: “Fab Five Freddy told me everybody's fly.”So the question is—who is Fab Five Freddy?This guy is one of the central figures in the birth of hip-hop culture. Not just rap music, but the whole ecosystem: graffiti, breakdancing, fashion, DJ culture, art, film—everything that eventually turned into a massive global industry.Hip-hop today represents hundreds of billions of dollars in music, fashion, and entertainment. But in the late '70s and early '80s it was just a small creative movement happening in New York.Fab 5 Freddy helped connect all those worlds. He bridged graffiti artists, musicians, downtown art scenes, and eventually MTV.He also just wrote a book called Everybody's Fly, and it was a huge honor for me to talk with him about the origins of hip-hop and how creativity actually grows.Episode Description:Before hip-hop became a global industry, it was a loose network of DJs, graffiti artists, dancers, and musicians creating something entirely new in New York City.Fab 5 Freddy was at the center of it.In this conversation, he explains how hip-hop emerged from a mix of street culture, art scenes, punk music, and experimentation with records and sound. He discusses the origins of graffiti tagging, the rise of DJs like Grandmaster Flash, and the cultural moment when Blondie's “Rapture” helped bring hip-hop into mainstream awareness.Freddy also shares how the first hip-hop film, Wild Style, helped unify the culture's elements—music, dance, graffiti, and fashion—and introduce them to a wider audience.The conversation then turns to the modern era: AI-generated music, the attention economy of social media, and why artists today may need to slow down and develop their work before exposing it to the world.What You'll Learn:How hip-hop emerged from a mix of music, graffiti, dance, and street cultureWhy early DJs searched old records for breakbeats to create new soundsHow the film Wild Style helped define hip-hop culture for the worldWhy artists today may need to resist posting unfinished work onlineHow creativity evolves when technology disrupts the music industryTimestamped Chapters[00:02:00] The Story Behind the Title Everybody's Fly[00:03:01] A Note from James[00:04:15] Meeting Biz Markie and the Culture of Collecting Hip-Hop History[00:05:35] How Jazz, Blues, and Soul Influenced Early Hip-Hop[00:06:22] DJs Digging Through Records to Find Breakbeats[00:07:40] Grandmaster Flash and the Science of DJing[00:08:41] Why Producers Became Central to Hip-Hop Music[00:09:54] Blondie's “Rapture” and Hip-Hop's Mainstream Breakthrough[00:11:00] The Downtown Art Scene: Basquiat, Keith Haring, and Andy Warhol[00:12:24] The Origins of Graffiti and Tagging Culture[00:13:48] Graffiti as Competition and Artistic Evolution[00:15:12] Punk Rock and Hip-Hop: Parallel Cultural Revolutions[00:17:47] The Idea for the First Hip-Hop Film Wild Style[00:19:02] Bringing Breakdancing, Graffiti, and Rap Together on Film[00:21:50] Lessons Modern Artists Can Learn from Early Hip-Hop[00:22:49] Why Posting Creative Work Too Early Can Hurt It[00:24:00] Social Media, Attention, and the Speed of Culture[00:26:00] Hip-Hop's Global Influence[00:29:00] The Birth of Conscious Rap[00:31:12] Directing KRS-One's “My Philosophy” Video[00:33:00] Finding Great Hip-Hop in the Streaming Era[00:36:00] Battle Rap and Lyrical Skill[00:37:00] Artists Who Still Push the Genre Forward[00:40:11] How Rappers Make Money Today[00:43:00] What Makes an Artist Stand the Test of Time[00:47:00] Sampling, Technology, and the Evolution of Music Production[00:54:00] AI Music and the Future of Creativity[01:02:00] What “Everybody's Fly” Really MeansAdditional Resources:Fab 5 Freddyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fab_Five_FreddyRapturehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapture_(Blondie_song)Wild Stylehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_StyleGrandmaster Flashhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandmaster_FlashKRS-Onehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KRS-OneDebbie Harryhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debbie_HarrySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week we're joined by actor, drag queen, and Debbie Harry fanatic, Love Connie, for a look at David Cronenberg's sexy and sadistic meditation on horror, television, and society: Videodrome. The early 1980s saw a revolution in consumer video. Small UHF stations broadcast trashy movies at night to compete with the larger VHF networks. VCRs and cable introduced theatrical films to the home market uncut for broadcast. Canadian media theorist, Marshall McLuhan, had some real deep thoughts on what that would mean for our society and how it would change our consciousness. Cronenberg saw a movie in there and he cast James Woods and Debbie Harry as pawns in a game played by shadowy figures using television signals to physically transform the viewers. Max Renn is an executive for CIVIC-TV, a small UHF station in Toronto, a station that broadcast violent and pornographic content. He's on the lookout for the next sensation that'll broaden his audience and he stumbles on to what appears to be a snuff show called Videodrome. It's nothing but brutality, no plot, no characters, just violence. The deeper he looks into it, the worse his hallucinations become. What's real? What's fantasy? Does it even matter? What is Videodrome doing to him?

In this episode, I talk with Gary Lachman, author, cultural historian, and founding member of Blondie. Gary is widely regarded as one of the most prolific contemporary writers on Western esotericism, consciousness, and the hidden currents shaping culture.Our conversation centers on his most recent book, 'Touched by the Presence: From Blondie's Bowery and Rock and Roll to Magic and the Occult', his second autobiography and a deeply personal account of his spiritual development. The book traces his journey from the New York punk scene into a lifelong engagement with mysticism, synchronicity, and the inner life, exploring how moments of contact with something beyond the ordinary can quietly redirect an entire existence.We talk about Gary's early influences and how classic comic books, science fiction, and music helped form an imaginative framework that later opened naturally into esoteric study. We then talk about his journey of unfoldment, as his life story seems to intertwine with the growing counter culture of 70's and beyond. We continue into how those experiences, including meeting Debbie Harry, shaped his world view and led him into to becoming one of the most prolific writers in esoterica.. He reflects on the shamanic and transformative power of music, including the unique cultural and spiritual field surrounding the Grateful Dead, and how sound itself can function as a vehicle for altered states and collective meaning.Gary also shares insights from his brief time connected with the O.T.O., the realities many seekers encounter when entering formal occult structures, and his broader reflections on how human beings intuit, dream, and sometimes prefigure the future before it fully arrives.This episode is a thoughtful exploration of art, music, memory, mysticism, and so much more..

When I started out with this podcast, one of the things that I was – still am - interested in is the uncertainty of living today and how it takes us into living with liminality.  “In the middle of the journey of our life I came to myself within a dark wood where the straight way was lost.” The Divine Comedy – Dante  It makes me wonder if life always been woven together with paths of liminality. I guess it has. And perhaps what was liminal to someone in the 14th Century would not feel liminal to us now. I shudder to think what those folk would feel about the world today. Mind you, I imagine the 14th Century was pretty brutal. Not medieval for nothing. But how do we traverse the anxiety, turbulence and exhaustion that living with liminality can give, especially these days when the world feels so, SO fucked up. The feelings can be so very strong. I've also pondered (as I do – we all have our faults!) what the role of music is these days. I read a post by a musician friend of mine and he was expressing his exhaustion at living in this world. Is music and art the medicine that we need, either as creators or consumers to retain sanity, connection and community or to access our subconscious? Is it still as dangerous to the establishment as it once was?  This and other existential questions relating to our existence and how we move through the world might be pondered in today's episode with a songwriter, producer and musician who has such an extensive and rich musical history with some exceptional artists (one of whom, Debbie Harry, is unquestionably a legend) and has just released his latest solo album called 'Stories From The Borderlines', 11 beautifully crafted songs that brood with their imagination, poignancy, turmoil and hopefulness. I think it's a great representation of the world today and the wildly diverse emotions that I often feel.https://www.iwannajumplikedeedee.comI Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is the music podcast that does music interviews differently.

Today, I'm once again joined by an amazing speaker, client, and member of The Big Talk community, Kristina DiPalo. Kristina awakens people and organizations stuck between the future they imagined and the one they are living. Leveraging the concept of icons and iconoclasts, she uses her experience as a strategic leader to help clients break worn-out definitions and navigate toward a future of growth and possibility. In our conversation, Kristina shares her journey through a watershed moment—when her roles as wife, daughter, and professional were all shifting—and how reconnecting with the icons of her youth (Debbie Harry, Shirley Chisholm, Billie Jean King, and Millicent Fenwick) helped her realize she'd drifted from who she truly was. In this episode, we'll explore: How to identify your watershed moment—when what you are is out of alignment with who you are—and why the tension you feel is actually a powerful signal for change The difference between the roles you play (mom, professional, partner) and who you truly are at your core Why becoming an iconoclast doesn't mean dramatic life changes, but rather breaking small daily compromises that have steered you away from your authentic self How to use courage and faith to consciously redefine yourself when you realize you're living someone else's definition of who you should be Current Favorites: Books: The Last Temptation of Christ & Love in the Time of Cholera, Speaker: Spalding Gray, and Podcasts: The Iconic Podcast & The Bulwark Podcast More from Kristina DiPalo Her first appearances on The Big Talk podcast in Episode 555 and Episode 578 Website: https://kristinadipalo.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristinadipalo/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristinadipalo/    More from Tricia  Unlock your potential and grow your speaking business during The Art of The Big Talk, my LIVE Two-Day Virtual Masterclass Join me LIVE for my Free Monthly Workshop Explore my content and follow me on YouTube Follow me on Instagram  Connect with me on Facebook  Connect with me on LinkedIn  Visit my website at TriciaBrouk.com

Blondie got their start as part of New York's fertile punk scene in the late ‘70s, a time of great musical innovation. Also a time of great fear. Violent crime had the five boroughs in a stranglehold. Muggers, rapists, thieves, criminal deviants of all stripes ran wild in the streets. Or so they said. True New Yorkers like Blondie were tough, jaded, immune to the fears foisted upon tourists. Blondie's Debbie Harry, in particular, was not a victim and not a mark. But she nearly became a victim to a soon-to-be infamous serial killer when she accepted a ride from a stranger.

We return to our rundown of Flash Gordon, just as Flash and Prince Barin are being taken to the Hawkmen's planet to fight to the death!Flash Gordon was directed by Mike Hodges, the British filmmaker behind Get Carter and Pulp, and produced by the legendary Dino De Laurentiis. Based on the King Features comic strip created by Alex Raymond, the film stars Sam J. Jones as the all-American hero Flash, Melody Anderson as Dale Arden, Ornella Muti as the dangerous Princess Aura, Max von Sydow as Ming the Merciless, and Topol as the eccentric scientist Dr. Hans Zarkov. The supporting cast includes Timothy Dalton, Brian Blessed, Peter Wyngarde, Peter Duncan and John Hallam — a line-up that reads like a who's who of cult cinema.We dig into the incredible production history of Flash Gordon, from De Laurentiis' first attempts in the 1960s to his decision to turn down George Lucas — a choice that helped inspire Star Wars. The film's troubled development included a scrapped version by Nicolas Roeg, with Debbie Harry once rumoured to play Princess Aura. Eventually, Hodges took the reins, working from a screenplay by Lorenzo Semple Jr., the same writer who brought Batman's colourful POW! ZAP! style to TV in the 1960s. That influence is clear throughout, giving Flash Gordon its unmistakable comic-book tone.The film was shot mainly at Elstree and Shepperton Studios, pushing British set design and visual effects to the limit. For the famous Hawkmen sequence, the crew built a sixty-foot-high, hundred-foot-wide blue screen powered by a million watts of light. The result is one of the most gloriously excessive moments in sci-fi history — a flying army, Brian Blessed shouting “Gordon's alive!” and Queen blasting through the speakers.Speaking of Queen, we explore how their soundtrack revolutionised film music, paving the way for rock bands to score major blockbusters. The combination of Freddie Mercury's operatic flair and Howard Blake's orchestral compositions gave Flash Gordon a sonic identity that still feels fresh today.We also look at the film's eclectic cast. Sam J. Jones' brief but memorable career, Melody Anderson's move from acting to social work, and Ornella Muti's headline-grabbing life and legal troubles. There's Max von Sydow's path from The Seventh Seal to The Exorcist and Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Topol's secret links to Mossad, Timothy Dalton's long and winding journey to becoming James Bond, and Peter Wyngarde's transformation from Department S to the gold-masked villain Klytus.And, of course, the mighty Brian Blessed — mountaineer, Shakespearean thunder-god, near-astronaut, and national treasure. From I, Claudius to Doctor Who, Cats, Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, and beyond, he's one of Britain's most extraordinary performers.In this episode, we unpack the layers of Flash Gordon as both cult classic and chaotic masterpiece: how its bright visuals masked a difficult shoot, how its camp sensibility influenced generations of filmmakers, and why it remains a cornerstone of British sci-fi fandom. Whether you're here for trivia, nostalgia, or the Queen soundtrack alone, this is one of our most detailed episodes yet — and we'll be back next week with part two to finish the adventure.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/general-witchfinders.

When photographer Martyn Goddard began documenting the emerging punk and new wave scene in London during the late 1970s, he was capturing more than a musical movement—he was photographing a cultural revolution. His lens found its way to some of the most influential bands of the era, none more iconic than Blondie. His candid, stylish, and energetic photographs reveal the band's magnetic presence both on and off stage, chronicling the rise of Debbie Harry and her bandmates at a moment when music, fashion, and attitude collided. That work is now celebrated in his new book, Blondie: In Camera, a visual time capsule that immerses readers in the band's world during their formative years. More than nostalgia, the book reflects Goddard's ability to balance artistry and access—creating images that feel as intimate as they are electric. Through his photographs, he reminds us why Blondie's aesthetic and spirit continue to resonate decades later, defining an era when photography and music were inseparable forces of style and identity.

In this episode of Spirit Box, I'm joined by Gary Lachman — musician, writer, and author of twenty-six books on Western esotericism — for a conversation that spans from the Bowery to the astral.Gary was the bassist for Blondie during their early New York years, and shares his journey from a childhood fascination with comics to his time living in a loft with Debbie Harry and Chris Stein, where a flamboyant biker artist introduced him to Aleister Crowley. That encounter, and a fateful read of Colin Wilson's The Occult, set him on a lifelong path through the hidden corridors of consciousness, mysticism, and philosophy.We talk about precognitive dreams and telepathy, the strange electrical accident that may have opened psychic doors, and how a shared dream with his girlfriend became the Blondie song “Touched by Your Presence.” Gary reflects on his shift from rock and roll to writing, his time as a science journalist, and his enduring fascination with thinkers like Gurdjieff, Robert Anton Wilson, and Arthur Koestler.The conversation also explores Gary's “naturalist” approach to magic — a focus on direct experience rather than dogma — and his philosophy of daily writing as an esoteric practice in itself. Along the way, we touch on David Bowie, near-death encounters, and the lasting influence of Colin Wilson on his work.Show notes:https://www.gary-lachman.comhttps://www.instagram.com/gvlachman/https://www.innertraditions.com/touched-by-the-presenceKeep in touch?https://linktr.ee/darraghmason

What's myth and what's fact in the story of Charles Manson? What were the true motives behind the murders and who was really involved? There are many books covering this topic, yet very few have broken through the 'official' tale told by the trial's prosecutors and the news media at the time. This book includes hundreds of hours of research into court and police documents, witness statements, media reports and interviews with those involved. This book examines the current theories surrounding the case and appraises their likelihood against a timeline of events and the words of Manson himself. The prosecution case promoted by Vincent, Bugliosi, the Process Church influence as endorsed by Ed Sanders and David McGowan, the robbery scenario as spoken of by Nikolas Shreck and William Scanlon Murphy and the possibility of MK Ultra mind control as discussed by Adam Gorightly are all examined and tested.How do Terry Melcher, Elvis Presley, the Beach Boys, Jane Fonda, the Mamas and the Papas, Michael Caine, Dean Martin, Angela Lansbury, Peter Sellers, Warren Beatty, Yul Brynner, Peter Falk, Cary Grant, Steve McQueen, Neil Young, Frank Zappa, Nancy Sinatra, Ronald Reagan and Debbie Harry fit into the tale? What Hollywood secrets did the industry, the police and the prosecution strive to keep hidden? Were the victims really chosen at random by a crazed cult of serial killers, high on a mix of LSD, Satanism and the music of the Beatles? Read on to uncover the secrets of the Manson family, their trial, the main players in the case and the murky world of Hollywood.The book contains 564 pages, 200,000+ words containing a complete history of the life of Charles Manson.A detailed examination of the Hinman, Shea, Tate and LaBianca murders, appraisal of all the most prominent theories surrounding the case, explanations of the coded confessions revealed in interviews with Manson.Stories of celebrity encounters, facts about Manson's relationship with the music industry, details of organised crime connections, faults with the prosecution's case, troubling indications about the motives and character of Vincent Bugliosi, examinations of further murders and other criminal activity possibly connected to Manson.Revelations about the main players involved in the case, embarrassing secrets of the Hollywood elite, suggestions of police ineptitude, signs of a cover-up, bizarre coincidences, strange occurrences, salacious gossip, radical political movements, riots, the Black Panthers, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, cults, religion, sex, drugs and murder.This book has been read, enjoyed, praised and promoted by friends of Charlies and members of ATWA. https://amzn.to/4naItmKBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

He sold his first painting to Blondie's Debbie Harry for $200. Less than a year later, his paintings were going for more than $20,000. And decades later, the debate over what is and what is not a real Basquiat rages on. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including a depiction of police brutality.
