The Encyclopedia of Dead Rock Stars (431 page)

Finally, if you felt that the peaceful world of the 1960s hippy rock scene was to present a safe house from all this mayhem, then think again. Guitarist Bobby Beausoleil was a contemporary of Arthur Lee and played alongside the Love-god in his band’s earlier incarnation as The Grass Roots–he also worked with David LaFlamme, later of It’s a Beautiful Day. However, despite the apparent ‘good vibes’ suggested by his musical associations, Beausoleil was also a member of the notorious Family, and since July 1969, has been serving time for the murder of music teacher Gary Hinman–allegedly on the instruction of faction leader Charles Manson.

But let’s not get started on him, eh?
