Attention VINYL has MELTED
Lie: The Love and Terror Cult is the debut studio album by American musician and convicted murderer Charles Manson.
It was released on vinyl on March 6, 1970, by Phil Kaufman, through a record label branded Awareness Records.
Although not a commercial success, it retains a following among those interested in the Manson case, inspiring many cover versions and samples.
The album includes some of Manson's best known songs, including "Look at Your Game, Girl" and "Cease to Exist" (the latter had been recorded by the Beach Boys as "Never Learn Not to Love").
The cover is a parody of the December 19, 1969, Life magazine cover, which featured Manson along with the headline "The Love and Terror Cult".
The two covers are mostly identical; however, the "F" in "LIFE" has been deleted and the line "The dark edge of hippie life" has been removed.
The date and price are replaced with the Awareness Records logo.
WTCC (90.7 FM) is a radio station licensed to serve Springfield, Massachusetts.
The station is owned by Springfield Technical Community College (STCC), with studios and transmitter located in Garvey Hall on the STCC campus. It airs a college radio format.
The station was assigned the WTCC call letters by the Federal Communications Commission.
In 1968, Phil Kaufman, who had met Manson in prison, moved in briefly with Manson and his "Family". Kaufman continually urged Manson to record some of the songs that Manson had written.
Over the summer of 1968, Manson attempted to construct an album with members of the Beach Boys.
Carl and Brian Wilson co-produced about ten songs by Manson that he recorded at the Beach Boys' personal studio.
These tapes remain unreleased, though the songs themselves may overlap with the material present on Lie: The Love and Terror Cult.
In December 1968, the Beach Boys released their version of Manson's "Cease to Exist" as a single B-side, except the lyrics were changed and the title was altered to "Never Learn Not to Love", which angered Manson.
In August 1969, members of the Manson Family committed several murders and were apprehended three months later.
While Manson was being held on the charges, he told Kaufman "please put out my music".
According to Kaufman, Manson phoned him five days a week, even though he was allowed only three phone calls per day. Manson was "very anxious for his music to be heard"
