This sounds interesting. Really. Waaay back in the distant misty era of bubble-gum family-produced pop, there was a group called the Cowsills. All-American family, well-produced, with a big hit called "The Rain, the Park, and Other Things." It was about a mystical girl who showed up and then vanished, leaving only a flower. A FLOWER, MAN. They were the inspiration for the Partridge Family, supposedly. Well, there's a new documentary about the group, and what do you know: dad was a control freak.

And of course half the people came to a bad end.

Oh, the music industry: home to so many happy endings. You can read more here.
