Phil Spector DEAD

81.

Bye then, you murdering bastard.

 

GOOD.

 

The DailyM*il says it was COVID related?

 

How big was his hair at the end.

 

I know. I loved him in The Fall.

 

GOOD.

 

Although his music was at times amazing.

 

BBC headline:

Talented but flawed producer Phil Spector dies aged 81

 

Fuck the BBC who have the phrase "Talented but flawed" in their headline.

 

Ah, we've covered that - I was tweeting my outrage because that's what we lefties do these days.

 

They've shat it and changed it to "Jailed music producer". Not any better guys.

 

I'm going to listen to The Crystals and The Ronettes and celebrate that not a penny will reach him in hell.

 

Was he alive ? He never mentioned being

 

did anyone watch the HBO miniseries with Helen Mirren and Al Pacino a few years back? I seem to recall it being quite good. although if I remember rightly or didn't take the position that actually definitely murdered Lana.

 

I hope they play this at the funeral:

 

Oh well.

Ronnie was still looking and sounding in pretty good form a couple of years back - and the size of THE DO:



I've got her book somewhere, I'll have to dig it out.

 

I think “his hair” is pushing it somewhat, darling. He was AS BALD AS A COOT.

 

Oh WELL!

 

I do my hair toss. Check my nails.
Baby how you feelin? Spector burn in HELL!

 

'Phil Spector dies in prison' tag DEAD

 

I thought he already was dead!

 

I believe the sentence you were looking for is,

'Phil Spector? I thought that WHORE died!'

 

Amazing

 

Shots fired from Rita, what a corker

 

HPOTW

 

Over on the Steve Hoffman forums, where US boomers wet themselves over Beatles outtakes, they're deleting all the Spector-related threads because they're "impossible to moderate, filled with hate and vitriol". OH, YA THINK?

"No politics" is one thing but insisting on positivity only for this fucking weasel is just ridiculous.

Now it's 'murderer and music producer'. Clearly someone has had words.

 

Talented but flawed

I mean really

 

Disgusted Euphoria wasn't described as 'murderer and Now That's What I Call Music enthusiast', tbh.

 

If I had been writing the headline, I think I'd have gone for 'Noted goat fucker Phil Spector'.

 

BBC News - BBC apologises for Phil Spector death headline

I mean it wasn't exactly UNTRUE.

 

I mean they could have taken a cue from Moopy and just titled it "PHIL SPECTOR DEAD" and avoided all that. He is well known/infamous enough to have carried that!

 

what a weird article reporting on themselves in the third person, and even reviewing scolding tweets about them!

AND THEN an obituary for some reason, starting with his biggest success !!

 

In a situation like this, tone is everything. Whilst I understand the Twitter comments about "Talented but flawed gardener Fred West" etc etc, Fred West is only known as a murderer.

Holding the two thoughts at the same time is possible: he was a murderer, a serial abuser and a bully and, also, he changed the face of pop music, produced some imperishable classics and his sound is immigrated to this day. It's not excusing him to point out how influential he was in music per se. But using it to qualify his murder, his abuse, his horrific behaviour towards musicians - that's a pile of shite.
