I saw something that said Covid was a partial cause.

 

[Dr. Cheese]

Spector’s ending is tragic all the way around.

 

[JRA]

i loved his work. so talented! so tortured/pathological. R.I.P.

 

[LBS-bass]

Not my favorite human. He did influence popular music in a profound way, but unfortunately that's about the only good thing I can say.

 

[Son of Wobble]

Too soon!

 

[Winslow]

woW.woW.WOW.Wow.Wow.

 

[Stevorebob]

I’d like to care, but I really don’t want to.

The Ramones fans are torn today, many are trashing the man.
I can't even comment what I would like to, because of the subject-matter that is forbidden here.

 

[Killing Floor]

Sad day. Another of many sad days recently. Legend is an understatement. All I can say is thank you.

 

[Alkali Ike]

I'm a little conflicted about his "wall of sound" approach, but at the same time I can't deny it was genius. RIP Phil Spector.

Another one taken by Covid.

When is 2020 going to end?

Record producer Phil Spector died at age 80

I was surprised upon replaying now just how predominate in the mix is that shaker.

 

[Dr. Cheese]

Even though he was found guilty, I am pretty sure that Phil Spector had profound mental health issues. The fact is he died a criminal, but nothing changes his great vision as a producer. All around are art and inventions created by people with horrible flaws and shortcomings.
