Tarantino went on to say that Beyond the Valley of the Dolls is connected to the Manson Family through both the character 'Z-Man and with Phil Spector, for many reasons.' He would have included them on KHJ. He thought of using songs from the fictional band, The Carrie Nations from the film Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, as though they were real. Tarantino stated he had an idea for the film that he abandoned which would help to illustrate how the movie was a fairy tale. Another Hullabaloo scene was shot featuring DiCaprio singing ' Don't Fence Me In' by Cole Porter and Robert Fletcher but it was not included in the final cut of the film. The song was cited as a reference to a portal to hell by a late 1960s Charles Manson-like cult leader, David Berg in letters regarding his group ' The Family'. ' The Green Door' is sung in the film by Leonardo DiCaprio as Rick Dalton on Hullabaloo. Members of the group Cass Elliot and Michelle Phillips are portrayed in the movie. The sheet music for the song was found on the piano inside Sharon Tate's residence during the investigation of her murder. The Mamas & the Papas song 'Straight Shooter' appears in the film and its trailer. He wrote the song 'Good Thing' which appears on the soundtrack, at the residence. Mark Lindsay, lead singer of Paul Revere & the Raiders, whose music is featured in the film, once lived at 10050 Cielo Drive, the address of the Tate murders. That was probably my first soundtrack album.' When it came to using Neil Diamond's ' Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show' Tarantino stated, 'Brother Love sounds a bit like Charles Manson' and 'I have a connection to Neil that goes back to the Urge Overkill song in Pulp Fiction.' 'I think this might be best yet.' He said he 'went nuts for ' and 'It had Wolfman Jack DJ stuff filtered through. Tarantino stated he was influenced by the soundtrack for American Graffiti. They were approached by some name acts to record covers and by Lana Del Rey to record original material but Tarantino insisted he only wanted to use music recorded before 1970. Ramos and Tarantino selected the songs in his home by going through his vinyl collection. It includes original Boss Radio jingles by Johnny Mann and commercials, as well as the voices of Boss Radio DJs including Don Steele and Charlie Tuna, also featured in the film. Tarantino and his music supervisor, Mary Ramos listened to 14 hours of original 1969 KHJ-AM soundchecks to help create the soundtrack.
