Teasing the Korean Posted April 13, 2009 Author Report Posted April 13, 2009 And guilty of murder as opposed to manslaughter. Can't say I'm surprised. Quote

Alexander Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 Here's my question: Is it all right to continue to admire his genius, even though he's a convicted killer? I love the "Back to Mono" box. It's one of my musical treasures. I don't want to have to stop listening to it just because the guy's a nut job! I think I'm going to go sulk and listen to "Death of a Ladies Man" now... Quote
JSngry Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 Here's my question: Is it all right to continue to admire his genius, even though he's a convicted killer? Since I prefer to use the term "genius" in terms of the work & not the person far more often than not, I would certainly hope so, because I'm right there with ya' on that.. Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Posted April 14, 2009 If it's OK to listen to Joe Meek, why not Phil Spector? Quote
Matthew Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 If it's OK to listen to Joe Meek, why not Phil Spector? Truly, that also goes for Frank Rosalino... Quote

I know it has a bad reputation, but I just love "Death of a Ladies Man" more and more each time I listen to it. I listened last night, and it was wonderful! The problem is that the CD sound is CRAP. This REALLY needs a decent reissue... Quote
flat5 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 Please don't put Frank Rosolino in the same category. If you do you don't know what you are talking about. Quote
Matthew Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 Please don't put Frank Rosolino in the same category. If you do you don't know what you are talking about. The point is: Musicians/artists do terrible things in life, but their art should still be enjoyed. Quote
JSngry Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 People do terrible things in life. It's kinda...what we do, collectively. As is doing grand things. There ain't no separate line for each. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 Hope Phil finds a barber before the slammer. Some folks will grab that crop and call him Ben Dover. Quote
James Posted April 17, 2009 Report Posted April 17, 2009 People do terrible things in life. It's kinda...what we do, collectively. Yeah, but those tenor players are all vicious criminals. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Posted April 17, 2009 Hope Phil finds a barber before the slammer. Some folks will grab that crop and call him Ben Dover. Nessa speaks from experience..... Quote
JSngry Posted April 21, 2009 Report Posted April 21, 2009 How would history have changed if Shadow Morton had gotten to the Ronettes before Spector did? Who knows? Who cares? Oh well. But could you imagine a "Shangri-la's vs Ronettes" Reverbed Snare Death Match? I can! And the oser is...PHIL SPECTOR! But then we'd never have had "I Wish I Never Saw The Sunshine". Quote
Swinging Swede Posted April 21, 2009 Report Posted April 21, 2009 Please don't put Frank Rosolino in the same category. If you do you don't know what you are talking about. Why not? He shot two other human beings, killing one and seriously disabling the other. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted May 29, 2009 Report Posted May 29, 2009 Say goodbye to Phil 19 years to life Quote
JSngry Posted May 30, 2009 Report Posted May 30, 2009 Say goodbye to Phil 19 years to life http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF-5HpMhJtk Finally, he gets to live in somebody else's prison. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 Hope Phil finds a barber before the slammer. Some folks will grab that crop and call him Ben Dover. Yeah, he'll have more to worry about than mono. Please don't put Frank Rosolino in the same category. If you do you don't know what you are talking about. Why not? He shot two other human beings, killing one and seriously disabling the other. Well, if you want things extremely simple, I guess it's the same thing. Personally, I wouldn't put someone who killed because of bad wiring in the same category as someone who killed a woman because she wouldn't put out... Quote
JSngry Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 You don't think Phil had bad wiring? C'mon, the guy's been deranged for decades now. Storeis abound, and if even 2 or 3 of them are true... It takes some people's bad wiring longer to fry than it does others. Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 (edited) for those of you in LA in the know: so um why was phil so mental anyway? was it due to a bad lsd trip like what happened to peter green, or was he naturally crazy, or was there some incident, of some sort- for those of you with detailied knowldge of the 60s LA pop scene Edited June 3, 2009 by chewy Quote
