1. He and Pap Finn are tied for Father of the Year
Phillips really was the sleaziest man in pop music.

4. He was an amazing songwriter and arranger...
I will take his "California vocal harmonies" over those of the Beach Boys, CSNY, and the Eagles any day.
Exquisite work.

If you look at just about any notable LA sex, drugs, occult, or just "odd" occurence from 65 to 75, there will be a connection to either Papa John or Phil Kaufman.

Didn't Charles Manson live with Dennis Wilson for a while?

3. I just read "Paper Life" by Tatum O'Neal...
might not want to turn to Ryan O'Neal either for that parenting advice. Although I don't think he had sex with Tatum, that sharing drugs with your pre-teen child just ain't going to turn out to be a happily ever after.

6. I gotta read that
But shooting your daughter up with coke/heroin/etc is not as bad as FUCKING YOUR DAUGHTER

Sorry for the bad language, but that just makes me incensed.
