THE SATANIC ROOTS OF ROCK

by Donald Phau

NOTE. Through out the article we (Dial-the-Truth Ministries) have added some
additions/comments. Our comments are in BLUE.
Today, at almost any "heavy-metal'' rock concert one can hear the audience being exhorted to rape and
murder in the name of Satan. Lyrics such as the following are typical:

"We come bursting through your bodies

Rape your helpless soul
Transform you into a creature
Merciless and cold
We force you to kill your brother
Eat his blood and brain
Shredding flesh and sucking bone
Till everyone's insane
We are pestilent and contaminate
The world Demonic legions prevail"
"DEMONS" by Rigor Mortis

Any loving parent today would be horrified and shocked to learn that their sons and
daughters are eagerly listening to such evil. Perhaps though, some may think privately,
"If only we could return to the 'good old days,' with the music of the Beatles." Little do
most people suspect that it was with those innocent-looking Beatles, that most of the
trouble started.

Modern electronic-rock music, inaugurated in the early 1960s, is, and always has been,
a joint enterprise of British military intelligence and Satanic cults. On the one side, the
Satanists control the major rock groups through drugs, sex, threats of violence, and
even murder. On the other side, publicity, tours, and recordings are financed by record
companies connected to British military intelligence circles. Both sides are intimately
entwined with the biggest business in the world, the international drug trade.

The so-called "rock stars" are pathetic puppets caught in a much larger scheme. From
the moment they receive their first recording royalties, the groups are heavily immersed
in drugs. For example, much-admired "stars'' such as John Lennon of the Beatles and
Keith Richard of the Rolling Stones, were heroin addicts. Richard had to obtain blood
transfusions, replacing his entire heroin-laced blood supply, in order to get a visa to
enter the United States. (Tony Sanchez, Up and Down WIth the Rolling Stones, p.319)

The "rock stars" are also totally artificial media creations. Their public image, as well as
their music, is fabricated from behind the scenes by controllers. For example, when the
Beatles first arrived in the United States in 1964, they were mobbed at the airport by
hundreds of screaming teenage girls. The national press immediately announced that
"Beatlemania" had besieged the U.S.A. But the girls had all been transported from a
girl's school in the Bronx, and paid for their screaming performance by the Beatles'
promoters.

The money of the 1960s rock groups, which in some cases mounted to hundreds of
millions of dollars, was also totally under the control of mob-connected promoters. From
1963 to 1970, the Rolling Stones made over $200 million, yet the group's members
were all nearly bankrupt. None of them had any idea of where their money went.

Between 1963 and 1964 the Beatles and the Rolling Stones laid siege to Western
European and American culture. This two-pronged invasion from England was well-
planned and well-timed. America had just suffered the shock of the assassination of

President John Kennedy, while in the streets the mass-based civil rights movement had
just held a Washington, D.C. rally, led by Martin Luther King, of 500,000 people. The
rock counterculture would be used as a weapon to destroy such political movements.

Later in 1968 and 1969, years which saw a mass strike of students and workers in the
United States and Europe, huge, open-air rock concerts were used to head off the
growing discontent of the population. The rock concerts were devised as a means for
mass recruitment to the drug-saturated, free-sex counterculture. For the millions who
came to these concerts, thousands of tablets of the hallucinogenic drug, LSD, were
made freely available. These drugs were secretly placed in drinks such as Coca-Cola,
turning thousands of unsuspecting victims into raving psychotics. Many committed
suicide.

Less than a half century ago, our young children studied violin and piano, learning
about the great classical composers such as Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven. As will be
shown, the same record companies who today promote Satanic "heavy-metal" rock
have run covert operations to destroy the musical heritage of these great classical
composers.

For the past thirty years, Western society has been under the gun of a deliberate plan
of cultural warfare, with the purpose of eliminating Judeo-Christian civilization as we
know it. These plans must not succeed. So that the reader can better combat this evil,
we'll go back nearly thirty years, when those four innocent lads from Liverpool,
England, the Beatles, were just starting out.

Creating the Beatles

The Beatles first began performing in the
late 1950s in jazz clubs in England and
West Germany. These clubs, always located
in the seediest part of the cities, served as a
marketplace for prostitution and the
circulation of drugs. Beatle biographer Philip
Norman writes: "Their only regular
engagement was a strip club. The club
owner paid them ten shillings each to strum
their guitars while a stripper named Janice
grimly shed her clothes before an audience
of sailors, guilty businessmen and habitues
with raincoat-covered laps." (Philip Norman,
Shout! The Beatles in Their Generation, p.
81)

The Beatles got their first big break in

Germany, in August 1960, when they obtained a booking at a jazz club in Hamburg's
notorious Reeperbahn district. Describing the area Norman writes it had, "red-lit
windows containing whores in every type of fancy dress, all ages from nymphet to
granny...Everything was free. Everything was easy. The sex was easy... Here it came
after you." (Philip Norman, Shout! The Beatles in Their Generation, p. 91)

Far from the picture of innocence, the Beatles, even in their first performances, were
always high on a drug called Preludin, "John (Lennon), would be foaming at the mouth,
he'd have so many pills inside him...John, began to go berserk on stage, prancing and
groveling...The fact that the audience could not understand a word he said, provoked
John into cries of `Sieg Heil!' and `F____ing Nazis' to which the audience invariably
responded by laughing and clapping." (Philip Norman, Shout! The Beatles in Their
Generation, pp. 152,91)

9/15/2019 The Satanic Roots of Rock!

Off the stage, the Beatles were just as evil. Norman continues, "while in Hamburg,
John, each Sunday would stand on the balcony, taunting the churchgoers as they
walked to St. Joseph's. He attached a water-filled contraceptive to an effigy of Jesus
and hung it out for the churchgoers to see. Once he urinated on the heads of three
nuns."(Philip Norman, Shout! The Beatles in Their Generation, p. 152)

While in Hamburg, in June of 1962 the Beatles received a telegram from their manager,
a homosexual named Brian Epstein, who was back in England. "Congratulations,"
Epstein's message read. "EMI requests a recording session." EMI was one of Europe's
largest record producers, and their role in promoting the Beatles would be key in the
future.

Under the the strict guidance of EMI's recording director George Martin, and Brian
Epstein, the Beatles were scrubbed, washed, and their hair styled into the Beatles cut.
EMI's Martin created the Beatles in his recording studio.

Martin was a trained classical musician, and had studied the oboe and piano at the
London School of Music. The Beatles could neither read music nor play any instrument
other than guitar. For Martin, the Beatles musicianship was a bad joke. On their first hit
record, "Love Me Do," Martin replaced Ringo on the drums with a studio musician.
Martin said Ringo, "couldn't do a [drum] roll to save his life." From then on, Martin would
take the simple little tunes the Beatles would come to him with, and turn them into hit
records.

Lockwood and EMI

EMI, led by aristocrat Sir Joseph Lockwood, stands for Electrical and Mechanical
Instruments, and is one of Britain's largest producers of military electronics. Martin was
director of EMI's subsidiary, Parlophone. By the mid-sixties EMI, now called Thorn EMI,
created a music divison which had grown to 74,321 employees and had annual sales of
$3.19 billion.

EMI was also a key member of Britain's military intelligence establishment.

After the war, in 1945, EMI's European production head Walter Legge virtually took
over control of classical music recordings, signing up dozens of starving German
classical musicians and singers to EMI contracts. Musicians who sought to preserve
the performance tradition of Beethoven and Brahms, were relegated to obscurity while
"ex-Nazi" Party members were promoted. Legge signed and recorded Nazi member,
the late Herbert Von Karajan, promoting him to superstar status, while great conductors
such as Wilhelm Furtwangler were ignored.

From the beginning, EMI created the myth of the Beatles' great popularity. In August of
1963, at their first major television appearance at the London Palladium, thousands of
their fans supposedly rioted. The next day every mass-circulation newspaper in Great
Britain carried a front page picture and story stating, "Police fought to hold back 1,000
squealing teenagers." Yet, the picture displayed in each newspaper was cropped so
closely that only three or four of the "squealing teenagers" could be seen. The story
was a fraud. According to a photographer on the scene, "There were no riots. I was
there. We saw eight girls, even less than eight." (Philip Norman, Shout! The Beatles in
Their Generation, p. 188)

In February 1964, the Beatles myth hit the United States, complete with the
orchestrated riots at Kennedy Airport, previously mentioned. To launch their first tour,
the media created one of the largest mass audiences in history. For an unprecedented
two Sundays in a row, on the Ed Sullivan Show, over 75 million Americans watched the
Beatles shake their heads and sway their bodies in a ritual which was soon to be
replicated by hundreds of future rock groups.

On returning to England, the Beatles were rewarded by the British aristocracy they
served so well . In October 1965, the four were inducted into the Order of Chivalry, and
were personally awarded the accolade of Member of the British Empire by Queen
Elizabeth at Buckingham palace.

Up from the Dregs:

The Rolling Stones
The credit for the origination of today's blatantly
Satanic "heavy metal rock," goes to the English
group, the Rolling Stones. Their rise to fame was
closely connected with that of the Beatles.

The Stones, as they were called, were widely

characterized as the counterparts to the Beatles.
"The Stones" were "mean,'' "dirty" and
"rebellious," whereas the Beatles were the well-
groomed "Fab Four." Though seemingly
competitors, they were merely two sides of the
same operation. The Stones' first hit record was
actually written by the Beatles, and it was Beatle
member George Harrison who set up the
arrangements for their first recording contract.

Following the same game plan as the Beatles, in

the spring of 1963 the Rolling Stones appeared
on one of England's most popular family
television shows, Thank Your Lucky Stars. Only this time, the reaction by the middle-
aged viewers was quite different from that to the Beatles. Hundreds of angry letters
were sent, with a typical letter stating "It is disgraceful that long-haired louts such as
these should be allowed to appear on television. Their appearance was absolutely
disgusting."

The program, however, had exactly the planned effect. Rolling Stones' manager
Andrew Oldham was elated at the response. He told the group, "We're going to make
you exactly opposite to those nice, clean, tidy Beatles. And the more the parents hate
you, the more the kids will love you. Just wait and see." (Tony Sanchez, Up and Down
With the Rolling Stones, p.17)

In 1964, the Rolling Stones appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show, as the Beatles had
done earlier. This time though, the coast-to-coast audience beheld the spectacle of the
television studio being ripped to shreds by Stones fans. Sullivan said on the air
afterward, "I promise you, they will never be back on our show." The publicity, however,
was exactly what was wanted. Within a few months, the group's records were selling
millions of copies.

The plan was now to use both the Beatles and the Rolling Stones as the means
to transform an entire generation into heathen followers of the New Age,
followers which could mold into the future cadre of a Satanic movement and then
deploy into our schools, law enforcement agencies and political leadership.

Enter Satan
Inhis book, The Ultimate Evil, investigator-author Maury Terry writes that between 1966
and 1967, the Satanic cult, the Process Church, "sought to recruit the Rolling Stones

www.jesus-is-savior.com/Miscellaneous/satanic_roots_of_rock.htm 4/16
9/15/2019 The Satanic Roots of Rock!

and the Beatles." During this period, Terry reports that

a photo of Rolling Stones leader Mick Jagger's
longtime girlfriend, Marianne Faithfull, appeared in an
issue of The Process Magazine. The picture shows
her supine, as if dead, clutching a rose. Terry's book
goes on to implicate the Process Church cult in the
Charles Manson and Son of Sam multiple murders. It
was the former lawyer for the Process Church, John
Markham, who recently ran the frameup trial against
Lyndon LaRouche.

A key link between the Rolling Stones and the Process

Church is Kenneth Anger, a follower of the "founding
father" of modern Satanism, Aleister Crowley. Anger,
born in 1930, and a child Hollywood movie star,
became a devoted disciple of Crowley.

Crowley was born in 1875 and was called the "Great

Beast." He was known to practice ritual child sacrifice
regularly, in his role as Satan's high priest or "Magus." Crowley died in 1947 due to
complications of his huge heroin addiction. Before dying, he succeeded in establishing
Satanic covens in many U.S. cities including Hollywood. Anger, like Crowley, is a
Magus, and appears to be the heir to Crowley.

Anger was seventeen years old when Crowley died. In that same year, 1947, Anger
was already producing and directing films which, even by today's standards, reek of
pure evil.

During 1966-1967, when the Process Church is reported to be recruiting in London,

Anger was also on the scene. Author Tony Sanchez describes that Rolling Stones' Mick
Jagger and Keith Richard, and their girlfriends Marianne Faithfull and Anita Pallenburg,
"listened spellbound as Anger turned them on to Crowley's powers and ideas." (Tony
Sanchez, Up and Down With the Rolling Stones, p.155)

While in England, Anger worked on a film dedicated to Aleister Crowley, called Lucifer
Rising. The film brought together the Process Church, the Manson Family cult, and the
Rolling Stones. The music for the film was composed by Mick Jagger. Process Church
follower Marianne Faithfull went all the way to Egypt to participate in the film's depiction
of a Black Mass. The part of Lucifer was played by a guitarist of a California rock group,
Bobby Beausoleil. Beausoleil was a member of the Manson Family, and Anger's
homosexual lover.

A few months after filming under Anger's direction in England, Beausoleil returned to
California to commit the first of the Manson family's series of gruesome murders.
Beausoleil was later arrested and is now serving a life sentence in prison along with
Manson. Having lost his star performer, Anger then asked Mick Jagger to play Lucifer.
He finally settled upon Anton La Vey, author of The Satanic Bible and head of the First
Church of Satan, to play the part. The film was released in 1969 with the title Invocation
To My Demon Brother.

In London, Anger had succeeded in recruiting to Satanism the girlfriend of one of the
Rolling Stones, Anita Pallenberg. Pallenberg had met the Rolling Stones in 1965. She
immediately began sexual relations with three out of the five members of the group.

Anger, commenting on Anita, said, "I believe that Anita is, for want of a better word, a
witch...The occult unit within the Stones was Keith and Anita...and Brian. You see,
Brian was a witch too."

9/15/2019 The Satanic Roots of Rock!

One of the group's friends, Tony Sanchez, writes of Pallenberg in his book, Up and
Down with the Rolling Stones, "She was obsessed with black magic and began to carry
a string of garlic with her everywhere--even to bed--to ward off vampires. She also had
a strange mysterious old shaker for holy water which she used for some of her rituals.
Her ceremonies became increasingly secret, and she warned me never to interrupt her
when she was working on a spell."(Tony Sanchez, Up and Down WIth the Rolling
Stones, p.159)

He continues, "In her bedroom she kept a huge, ornate carved chest, which she
guarded so jealously that I assumed it was her drug stash. The house was empty one
day, and I decided to take a peep inside. The drawers were filled with scraps of bone,
wrinkled skin and fur from some strange animals." (Tony Sanchez, Up and Down With
the Rolling Stones, p.159)

In 1980, the seventeen-year-old caretaker of Keith Richard's New England estate was
found shot to death in Anita Pallenberg's bed. The death, ruled a suicide, was with
Pallenberg's gun. Richard's house was located near the East Coast headquarters of the
Process Church. According to an article in the English newspaper Midnite, a
Connecticut police officer, Michael Passaro, who had responded to the "suicide''
reported "strange singing" from the woods a quarter mile from the Richard's mansion.

The newspaper continues, "There have been several bizarre satanic rituals in the area
over the past five years. A local reporter attributed the outbreak of occultism to 'rich
people taking Acid.'"

In 1967, reflecting their ongoing association with Anger and the Process Church, the
Rolling Stones released their first rock album openly celebrating the Devil, titled, Their
Satanic Majesties Request. A few months earlier, the Beatles had released their first
album dedicated to the promotion of psychedelic drugs, Sargeant Pepper's Lonely
Hearts Club Band. The album contained a fantasized version of an LSD trip, called
"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds", or L.S.D. for short. It became a top seller.

Clearly, the Beatles' album was dedicated to Satanist

Aleister Crowley (pictured to left). It was released 20 years,
nearly to the day, after Crowley's death in 1947, and its title
song began with the lyrics, "It was twenty years ago
today..." The album's cover featured a picture of Crowley.

One month after the album's release, the Beatles shocked

the world by announcing, publicly, that they were regularly
taking LSD. Beatle member Paul McCartney, in an interview
with Life magazine said, "LSD opened my eyes. We only
use one-tenth of our brain." They also publicly called for the
legalization of marijuana.

The cat was now out of the bag, but the protests were few and minor. In England, the
BBC banned "A Day in the Life," and in the U.S.A., Maryland Governor Spiro T. Agnew,
who would later be watergated, launched a campaign to ban "Lucy in the Sky With
Diamonds."

ROCK MUSIC AND ALIESTER CROWLEY

Aleister Crowley is without a doubt, the main spiritual "teacher" of rock music.
Crowley's mission in life was to destroy Jesus Christ and Christianity, while
exalting sex perversion, drugs, magick and Satan.

Aleister Crowley spews his hatred of Jesus Christ in The World's Tragedy:

www.jesus-is-savior.com/Miscellaneous/satanic_roots_of_rock.htm 6/16
9/15/2019 The Satanic Roots of Rock!

"I do not wish to argue that the doctrines of Jesus, they and
they alone, have degraded the world to it's present condition. I
take it that Christianity is not only the cause but the symptom of
slavery." (Aleister Crowley, The World's Tragedy, p. XXXIX)

"That religion they call Christianity; the devil they honor they call
God. I accept these definitions, as a poet must do, if he is to be at
all intelligible to his age, and it is their God and their religion that I
HATE and will DESTROY." (Aleister Crowley, The World's Tragedy,
p. XXXI)

In the introduction of The World's Tragedy, Israel Regardie says:

"This long, almost epic poem is one of the most bitter and vicious
diatribes against Christianity that I have ever read."

Crowley's most famous teaching, "Do what thou wilt shalt be the whole of the
law" became the "mantra" of the 60's revolution of drugs, sexual perversion and
anti-Christianity. "Do your own thing" — "If it feels good do it".

THE BEATLES & CROWLEY

According to The All Music Guide, The Beatle's Sgt. Pepper album, "will forever
be known as the recording that changed rock & roll". Time magazine said, Sgt
Pepper's was "drenched in drugs." (Time, Sept. 26, 1967, p.62)

The cover of Sgt. Pepper's showed the Beatles with a background of, according
to Ringo Starr, people "we like and admire" (Hit Parade, Oct. 1976, p.14). Paul
McCartney said of Sgt. Pepper's cover, ". . . we were going to have photos on the
wall of all our HEROES . . ." (Musician, Special Collectors Edition, - Beatles and
Rolling Stones, 1988, p.12)

One of the Beatle's heroes included on the cover of Sgt. Pepper's was — the
infamous Aleister Crowley! Most people, especially in 1967, did not even know
who Crowley was — but the Beatles certainly did.

Sgt. Pepper

". . . we were going to have photos on

the wall of all our HEROES . . ."

"Hero" Aleister Crowley is second from

left on the top row:

The Beatles apparently took Crowley's teaching very serious — Beatle John
Lennon, in an interview, says the "whole idea of the Beatles" was — Crowley's
infamous "do what thou wilt":

"The whole Beatle idea was to do what you want, right? To take
your own responsibility, do what you want and try not to harm other
people, right? DO WHAT THOU WILST, as long as it doesn't hurt
somebody. . ." ("The Playboy Interviews with John Lennon & Yoko
Ono", by David Sheff & G. Barry Golson, p. 61)

"They're COMPLETELY ANTI-CHRIST. I mean, I am anti-Christ as

well, but they're so anti-Christ they shock me which isn't an easy
thing."
Derek Taylor, Press Officer for the Beatles (Saturday Evening Post,
Aug. 8, 1964).

"Jesus El Pifico, a garlic-eating, stinking little yellow, greasy fascist

bastard Catholic Spaniard."
(John Lennon, A Spaniard in the Works, p.14)

"Christianity will go, it will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue about
that. I'm right and will be proved right. . . .We're more popular than
Jesus now."
John Lennon (San Francisco Chronicle, April 13, 1966, p.26)

LED ZEPPELIN

One of Crowley's most devout disciples

is Led Zeppelin guitarist, Jimmy Page.
Page, even bought Crowley's "house of
horrors" — Boleskine, located on Lock
Ness. Boleskine was the home Crowley
performed his "satanic-magick",
including blood sacrifices. Crowley was
buried inside a dark chamber in
Boleskine. Crowley's most famous
teaching was "Do what thou wilt shalt
be the whole of the law". Page had
inscribed in the vinyl on Zeppelin's Third album, Led Zeppelin III, "Do what thou
wilt. So mete it Be." Unbeknown to concert goers, Page would actually perform
Crowley rituals during some of Zeppelin's concerts.

OZZY OSBOURNE

Ozzy Osbourne called Crowley a

"phenomenon of his time" (Circus,
August, 26, 1980) Ozzy even
recorded a song of tribute to
Crowley — Mr. Crowley:

. . . You
fooled all the
people with
magic
You waited
on Satan's
call . . .
Mr. Crowley,
won't you
ride my white
horse

Mr. Crowley -
Ozzy
Osbourne

Ozzy, known for uncontrollable and violent acts, confessed in an interview:

"I really wish I knew why I've done some of the things I've done over
the years. I don't know if I'm a medium for some outside source.
Whatever it is, frankly, I hope it's not what I think it is - Satan".
Ozzy Osbourne (Hit Parader, Feb., 1978, p.24)

THE DOORS

Jim Morrison, superstar of the Doors, who died "mysteriously" on July 3, 1971
was deeply involved in the occult . Morrison married his wife at a Wicca wedding
standing in a pentagram and drinking each others blood.

www.jesus-is-savior.com/Miscellaneous/satanic_roots_of_rock.htm 8/16
9/15/2019 The Satanic Roots of Rock!

The backcover of the Doors album "13", shows the

group gathered around a bust of Aleister Crowley.

Morrison admitted that Satan was the source of his music:

"I met the Spirit of Music. . . . An appearance of the devil in a

Venice canal. Running, I saw a Satan or Satyr, moving beside me,
a fleshly shadow of my secret mind, . . ."
(The Lost Writings of Jim Morrison, p. 36-38)

Ray Manaxrek of the Doors, says of Morrison:

"He was not a performer. He was not an entertainer. He was not a

showman. He was a shaman. He was possessed."

"While [Jim Morrison] he was staying at the Chateau Marmont, he

spent a few wild nights with a buxom neighbor . . . once waking up
in a tangle of bloody sheets after they shared champagne glasses
of each other's blood."
(Pamela Des Barres, Rock Bottom, p. 208)

Many other rock artists "studied" Crowley such as: Marc Bolan, David Bowie,
Graham Bond, Sting, Daryl Hall, King Daimond, Bruce Dickinson, Stiv Bators, et
al.

Creating the Counterculture

The year 1967 marked a significant escalation in open cultural warfare against the
youth of the United States. The year saw the beginning of mass, open-air rock
concerts. In the two years which followed, over 4 million young people attended a
series of nearly a dozen of these "festivals," becoming the victims of planned, wide-
scale drug experimentation. Mind destroying hallucinogenic drugs such as PCP, STP,
and the Beatles-promoted LSD, were freely distributed at these concerts. These
millions of attendees would afterward return to their homes to become the messengers
and promoters of the new drug culture, or what came to be called the "New Age."

The first rock festival, "The First Annual Monterey International Pop Festival," was
attended by over 100,000 youngsters. The real purpose of Monterey Pop was the
widespread distrubution of a new type of drugs, classified as psychedelics or
hallucinogens, such as LSD. At Monterey, thousands of younger teen-agers were
introduced to the new hallucinogenic drugs.

The first experimentation with LSD was begun in the early sixties, in the Haight-
Ashbury section of San Francisco. The project was run by a joint CIA-British
intelligence task force under the code-name MK-Ultra. Part of the project called for the
free distribution of 5,000 tablets of LSD through a commune known as Ken Kesey's
Merry Pranksters. LSD's after-effects were then closely studied.

"We must always remember to thank the CIA and the army for LSD, by
the way. That's what people forget. . ."

("The Playboy Interviews with John Lennon & Yoko Ono", by David Sheff &
G. Barry Golson, p. 123)

Kesey, a so-called "poet" and convicted drug felon, became famous for driving around
California in a painted-up bus with his commune, the Merry Pranksters, distributing
LSD-laced Kool Aid to the unsuspecting.

The effect of LSD is to make the victim psychotic, along with the inability to discern
reality from drug-induced hallucinations. For many, this psychosis (also called a "bad
trip") could and did lead to suicide. When an individual is given LSD without his
knowledge, the psychosis-producing capabilities of the drug are amplified, and usually
leave the victim with permanent brain damage.

The organizer of the Monterey festival was John Phillips, a member of the rock group
the Mommas and the Papas. Phillips, as we shall see, was a drug pusher and closely
tied in with the network of Satanists around Charles Manson and director Roman
Polanski.

Phillips appointed a board of directors to promote and finance the concert. The
members of the board brought together a network of British intelligence operatives and
Satanists. The board of directors included Andrew Oldham (the Rolling Stones
manager), the Stones leader Mick Jagger, Beatle Paul McCartney and Phillips' friend,
record producer Terry Melcher, the son of Doris Day.

The concert, including the staging and the huge innovative outdoor amplification, was
run by Phillips. It was the first time that an American audience was exposed to such
openly demonic British groups as The Who, and Jimi Hendrix. At the conclusion of their
act, The Who, in a drug-crazed frenzy, destroyed all their guitars, amplifiers, and
drums. Hendrix simulated masturbation with his guitar, on stage, while performing at
ear-splitting volume levels.

There was massive, open use of drugs. Author Robert Santelli, in his book, Aquarius
Rising, writes "LSD was in abundance at Monterey. Tabs of `Monterey Purple' were
literally given to anyone wishing to experiment a little." The police made no arrests,
setting another precedent for future outdoor concerts.

There was a larger scheme in operation. The scheme was tied into MK-Ultra and it
involved using Satanists around Phillips, along with agents such as Ken Kesey and
Timothy Leary. The plan was to turn nearby San Francisco into a Satanist gaming
preserve, mass recruiting and perverting young run-away teenagers.

Phillips had earlier written the music to a song called "San Francisco" which sold over 5
million copies. The song called for youth throughout the country to come to San
Francisco "with flowers in their hair." The song was a rallying cry to tens of thousands
who came flooding into San Francisco in the summer of 1968 to join the new "hippie"
movement, misnamed the Summer of Love. Some who came became the prey for the
likes of Charles Manson, who recruited his cult-"family" exclusively from runaway youth.

TIMOTHY LEARY AND ALEISTER CROWLEY

Timothy Leary, an Harvard psychologist, who was the LSD "guru" of the 60's.
Leary preached spiritual "enlightenment" could be obtained by LSD. Many
rockers, like the Beatles, were deeply influenced by Leary. The Beatle's song
"Come Together" was dedicated to Leary, and Leary even sang background on
Lennon's "Give Peace A Chance".

Leary was also a very serious follower of Crowley. On PBS Late Night America,

carrying on Crowley's work:

"Well I've been an admirer of Aleister Crowley. I think that I'm

carrying on much of the work that he started over a hundred
years ago, and I think the 60's themselves. . . He was in favor of
finding yourself, and 'Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the
law' under love. It was a very powerful statement. I'm sorry he isn't
around now to appreciate the glories he started."

Manson and the Rock Stars

Charles Manson has been portrayed as a lone psychotic who had hypnotic power over
his "Family". In reality, Manson was well-known to a whole network of Hollywood
actors, actresses, promoters, partners and rock stars, and was providing sex and drugs
to many of them.

In his autobiography, Papa John, Phillips tells of an invitation he received to join Terry
Melcher and Beach Boy member Dennis Wilson, at Wilson's mansion. Wilson said,
"This guy Charlie's here with all these great-looking chicks. He plays guitar and he's a
real wild guy. He has all these chicks hanging out like servants. You can come over and
just screw any of them you want. It's a great party."

Manson's entire "Family" moved into the Beach Boys' mansion for nearly a year. The
Beach Boys, who have performed at the White House, are the top recording group of
EMI's subsidiary, Capitol Records.

On Sunday, August 10, 1969, Manson sent four members of his cult for their last visit to
Melcher's house. This time Melcher wasn't there, but the actress Sharon Tate, wife of
movie director Roman Polanski, and three others, were. When the group left, Tate and
the others had been savagely mutilated and murdered. As for Phillips, in June 1980, he
was arrested for running a large-scale drug wholesaling operation.

The Age of Aquarius

The largest concert after Monterey Pop, the "Woodstock Music and Art Fair," would be
what Time magazine celebrated as an "Aquarian Festival"' and "history's largest
happening." The term "Aquarian" was carefully chosen. The Aquarian age signified that
the "Age of Pisces," which is the age of Christ, had come to an end.

At Woodstock, a small town in upstate New York, nearly half a million youth gathered to
be drugged and brainwashed on a farm. The victims were isolated, immersed in filth,
pumped with psychedelic drugs, and kept awake continuously for three straight days,
and all with the full complicity of the FBI and government officials. Security for the
concert was provided by a hippie commune trained in the mass distribution of LSD.

Once again, it would be the networks of British military intelligence which would be the
initiators. Woodstock was the brain child of Artie Kornfeld, the director of EMI's Capitol
Record's, Contemporary Projects Division. The original funding was provided by the
heir of a large Pennsylvania-based pharmaceutical company, John Roberts, and two
other partners. It was another pharmaceutical company, the Swiss-based Sandoz
Laboratories, which had first synthesized LSD. Roberts would later be accused of using
his company for the mass drugging of the attendees.

Little adequate preparations were made for the nearly half a million people who came.
Joel Rosenman, one of the three partners, writes, as the concert neared, "Food and

water were clearly going to be in short supply, sanitary facilities overtaxed, tempers
short, drugs overabundant. Worst of all, there was no way for anyone who wanted to, to
leave." Sitting in your own excrement was actually part of the plan, as John Roberts
jokingly wrote, "We're going to hand out bananas at the gate to bind our patrons."

A hippie commune called the Hog Farm, had a special role at Woodstock. The Hog
Farm was led by a man nicknamed Wavy Graver, who was a former member of Ken
Kesey's MK-Ultra operation, the Merry Pranksters. Communes like the Hog Farm were
commonly found in the remote parts of California and served as the breeding grounds
for Satanic cults, as well as terrorist groups. Members of these communes continually
interchanged with other communes and were the recruiting grounds for the Process
Church and Manson. Hog Farm member Diane Lake was a member of Charles
Manson's Family, at the time of the massacre of Sharon Tate and her guests.

On August 14, one day before the scheduled opening, the entire festival security force,
comprised of 350 off-duty New York City cops, pulled out. A spokesman for the New
York police claimed that no official arrangement was ever made with the city, a claim
the promoters vehemently denied. In an August 15, 1969 New York Times article, the
head of Woodstock's security said, "Now I don't have any security at all. I've been
struck. We're having the biggest collection of kids there's ever been in this country
without any police protection." Not surprisingly, the Hog Farm was put in charge of
security.

Woodstock funder and director John Roberts, openly admitted that he was well aware
of the Hog Farm's connection to drug distribution. He writes, "their fee was simply
transportation to and from the festival... a peace-keeping force that looked, talked, and
smelled like the crowd would be both highly credible and highly effective... and the most
important, they were wise in the ways of drugs, knowing good acid from bad, good trips
from bummers, good medicine from poison, etc."

The Hog Farm at the time was living in New Mexico's mountains. Roberts chartered a
Boeing 727, at a cost of $17,000, and flew 100 of them to New York.

To clear the final path for the planned drugging of half a million youngsters, the district
attorney for the area agreed privately that there would be no arrests or prosecutions for
violations of drug laws. John Roberts writes, "The District Attorney...recognized early on
that many of our customers would be using illegal drugs, but also recognized that such
use would be the least of our problems over the course of the weekend. He acted,
therefore, with compassion and good grace throughout." Roberts also writes that he
was meeting continuously with the FBI up to and including one day before the start of
the concert, and had their full cooperation.

The Experiment Begins

Two days before the scheduled start of the concert, 50,000 kids had already arrived in
Woodstock. Drugs immediately began to circulate. Many people brought their babies
and, as Roberts says, even they were drugged. Roberts writes that at a nearby lake,
"the tots swam naked, smoked grass, and got into the music."

A poll conducted at the festival by the New York Times showed that 99 percent of those
attending were using marijuana. Local sheriff deputies, totally overwhelmed, reported
that no arrests were being made for drug use. The New York Times of August 17
quoted one deputy," If we did (make arrests), there isn't enough space in Sullivan or the
next three counties to put them in."

The use of marijuana was not the worst. Following the design of the original MK-Ultra
project, the mass distribution of LSD came next, much of it in LSD-laced Coca Cola, as
Kesey's Pranksters had done five years earlier. Roberts jokingly relates the following,
www.jesus-is-savior.com/Miscellaneous/satanic_roots_of_rock.htm 12/16
9/15/2019 The Satanic Roots of Rock!

"a particularly abrasive cop ....had been handed an LSD-spiked Coke while directing
traffic. Long after all automobiles in the area had congealed to a standstill, the hardhat
was still out on the road waving them on. Finally they led him away."

For the next three days, the nearly half a million young people that arrived were
subjected to continual drugs and rock music. Because of torrential rains, they were
forced to wallow in knee-deep mud. There were no shelters, and no way to get out.
Cars were parked over eight miles away. Rosenman writes that the key to the
"Woodstock experiment" was "keeping our performers performing around the clock...to
keep the kids transfixed..."

Within the first 24 hours, over 300 kids reported to medical authorities, violently ill. The
diagnosis: they were having "bad" LSD trips. Thousands more would follow. On August
17, the New York Times reported: "Tonight, a festival announcer warned from the
stage, that 'badly manufactured acid' (a term for LSD) was being circulated. He said:
'You aren't taking poison acid. The acid's not poison. It's just badly manufactured acid.
You are not going to die.... So if you think you've taken poison, you haven't. But if you're
worried, just take half a tablet.'"

The advice, to nearly 500,000 people, "just take half a tablet" was given by none other
than MK-Ultra agent Wavy Gravy.

With a growing medical emergency on hand, a call went out to New York City for
emergency medical personnel. Over 50 doctors and nurses were flown in. By the end
of Woodstock, a total of 5,000 medical cases were reported.

Altamont: the Making Of a Snuff Film

The last major rock "festival" of the 1960s was held at Altamont racetrack, outside San
Francisco. The featured performers were the Rolling Stones, who now reigned
supreme in the rock world, since the Beatles had broken up. The suggestion for the
concert came from MK-Ultra agent Ken Kesey.

This time, the audience was whipped into a frenzy, in open praise of the Devil. The
result was a literal Satanic orgy. At its conclusion, four people were dead and dozens
beaten and injured. Mick Jagger, the lead singer of the Rolling Stones, played the part
of Lucifer. The performance marked the beginning of the "heavy-metal" concerts of
today.

Over 400,000 people attended the Altamont concert with far less preparation than even
Woodstock. Food, and even water, were nearly unavailable. But plenty of drugs were to
be found. Like Woodstock, the concert would become the vehicle for the mass
experimentation of drugs, especially LSD. Author Tony Sanchez describes the scene as
people gathered at Altamont:

"By midmorning there were more than a quarter of a million people milling around, and
things were becoming chaotic. There was a lot of bad acid (LSD-DP) around, and
people were freaking out all over the place. Everybody was getting stoned out of his
skull to pass the long hours before the music was to start--Mexican grass, cheap
California wine, amphetamines ..." (Tony Sanchez, Up and Down With the Rolling
Stones, p.195)

"By midday virtually everyone was tripping...A man was almost killed as he tried to fly
from a speedway bridge--another acid case. On the other side of the site a young guy
screamed for help as he fell into the deep waters of a drainage canal. The stoned-out
freaks looked on bemused as he sank beneath the surface. No one seemed sure if he
had been real or an hallucination. It didn't matter anymore anyway, he was dead.

Elsewhere doctors were kept busy delivering babies to girls giving hysterical premature
birth." (Tony Sanchez, Up and Down With the Rolling Stones, p.195)

The descent into Hell would continue. The Rolling Stones had hired, for a reported
$500 worth of free beer, the motorcycle gang Hell's Angels to act as security guards for
the concert. Their real payment, however, was in drug sales. The Hell's Angels, an
outlaw gang made up of robbers, rapists and murderers, were the known controllers
and sellers of drugs on the entire West Coast.

When the festival did open, the crowd of nearly half a million people waited for more
than one and a half hours for the Stones to appear. It was only when nightfall arrived,
allowing for the use of special lighting effects, that the group finally came on stage.
Mick Jagger, the lead singer, was dressed in a satin cape, which glowed red under the
lights. Jagger was imitating Lucifer.

Author Sanchez next describes what he calls a preplanned "Satanic ritual." As

the group began playing, "strangely several of the kids were stripping off their clothes
and crawling to the stage as if it were a high altar, there to offer themselves as victims
for the boots and cues of the Angels. The more they were beaten and bloodied, the
more they were impelled, as if by some supernatural force, to offer themselves as
human sacrifices to these agents of Satan." (Tony Sanchez, Up and Down WIth the
Rolling Stones, p.199)

Standing in the crowd in front of the stage, with his girlfriend, was a black man by the
name of Meredith Hunter. Hunter would soon be singled out for human sacrifice.

The Stones had just released a new song entitled, "Sympathy for the Devil." It had
quickly become the number one record in the country. The song begins with Mick
Jagger introducing himself as Lucifer. As soon as he began to sing it at Altamont, the
entire audience rose up and began dancing in a wild frenzy.

Sanchez describes what happened next, "A great six foot four grizzly bear of a Hell's
Angel had stalked across to Meredith (Hunter) to pull his hair hard in an effort to
provoke a fight ...A fight broke out, five more Angels came crashing to the aid of their
buddy, while Meredith tried to run off through the packed crowd. An Angel caught him
by the arm and brought down a sheath knife hard in the black man's back. The knife
failed to penetrate deeply, but Meredith knew then that he was fighting for his life. He
ripped a gun out of his pocket and pointed it straight at the Angel's chest... And then the
Angels were upon him like a pack of wolves. One tore the gun from his hand, another
stabbed him in the face and still another stabbed him repeatedly, insanely, in the back
until his knees buckled."

"When the Angels finished with Hunter, several people tried to come to his aid, but an
Angel stood guard over the motionless body. `Don't touch him,' he said menacingly.
`He's going to die anyway, so just let him die.'"(Tony Sanchez, Up and Down WIth the
Rolling Stones, pp. 201,202)

It was never proven that Meredith actually had a gun. Later, arrests were made. No one
was ever indicted because no one person would step forward as a witness out of fear
of retaliation by the Angels.

Throughout the bloody killing the Rolling Stones continued to play "Sympathy for the
Devil." The entire group watched from the stage as Meredith Hunter was killed right
before them. In addition, incredibly, the entire murder was professionally filmed by a
film crew hired to film the concert. Shortly thereafter the film was released throughout
the country with the title of a Rolling Stone's song, "Gimme Shelter."

Was the murder preplanned by Satanists? In his book, The Ultimate Evil, author Maury
Terry tells how Satanic cults circulate among themselves films of their human sacrifices.
www.jesus-is-savior.com/Miscellaneous/satanic_roots_of_rock.htm 14/16
9/15/2019 The Satanic Roots of Rock!

These films are called "snuff films." Terry relates that one of the seven Son of Sam
murders in New York City was actually filmed from a nearby parked van. The film was
then purchased by a rich Satanist. "Gimme Shelter," which was a box-office hit, can still
be purchased or rented today for only a few dollars, at your local video store.

Behind "Heavy-Metal" Rock

The same year as Altamont, 1969, marked the
beginning of the evil career of Ozzy Osbourne.
Osbourne formed the band Black Sabbath. The group
modeled itself on the Rolling Stones. The next fifteen
years would witness a procession of young drugged-
out rock performers, like Osbourne, each competing for
the "big money" and the recording contracts that came
with it. The key criteria of those who would "make it"
was their ability to portray decadence and evil. These
were the "heavy-metal" groups.

In 1985, New Solidarity newspaper, which has since

been forcibly shut down by the federal government,
conducted an interview with Hezekiah Ben Aaron, then
the third-ranking member of the Church of Satan. Ben
Aaron is now a devout Christian. In the interview,
Aaron revealed that it was his Church that started such
"heavy-metal" rock groups as Black Sabbath, The Blue
Oyster Cult, The Who, Ozzy Osbourne, and many others. The Church of Satan was
then led by its high priest, Anton LaVey. Many report, however, that LaVey, a former
circus lion tamer, was just a front man for the real high priest, Kenneth Anger, the man
who earlier recruited the Rolling Stones to the occult.

The following is an excerpt from that interview: "I was working for the Church...the
Church had other people who were middlemen for other companies. There were
middlemen for Apple [set up by the Beatles], Warner Brothers, and other record
companies. Someone would come to me and say, `I have a tape recording, and I'd like
for you to check it out. I'd like to see if you would be interested in sponsoring a Rock
group.' I'd say `All right, I'll check it out.' A few days later Ben Aaron would call back
and set up another meeting. He continues, `I'd hand you $100,000, and you wouldn't
sign anything. What you wouldn't know is that a mirror on the back of the wall is a one-
way mirror and we're tape recording and photographing, or video taping everything that
goes on. The payback, if you fail to make the group work, is really bad. Sometimes it's
up to 60% on the dollar."

Aaron's interview continued: "we send you to a store, we provide you with uniforms and
we provide you with amplifiers. It's all paid through the money we gave you. We set you
up with a road tour. We set you up with engagements. We book you."

Aaron then explained that if the group did not make it he was given orders to collect the
money or make other "arrangements." These "other arrangements," perhaps, are the
key to the dozens of reported rock star "suicides." The underworld drug mafia has
ample means to eliminate non-payers. Some readers may remember the following
statement Beatle John Lennon made to the international press back in 1966:

"Christianity will go. It will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue about that. I'm
right and I will be proved right. We are more popular than Jesus now."

Hopefully, he will be proven to be wrong.
