My fair state can actually convict a celebrity

    As the latest trial dragged on, the Spector inner circle became concerned over a "best possible outcome" of perhaps manslaughter.
    The evidence was stacked, it seems.

    And, yes, he's a celebrity.

    Spector was one of the exceptions, creating a new sound... and guilty guilty guilty...

    His defense team should have introduced evidence that his finger twitched because he had just switched to Sanka.

    The "Twinkie" defense worked. Why not?
     
  6. Where's Glyn Johns on the list?
    Tom Dowd?

    Actually, it was a (apparently too obscure) Fast Times reference. The woman that Spector killed was the actress that played the wife of Mr. "I just switched to Sanka" Vargas. I thought I'd see if anyone caught on.

    Based on this post-trial photo, Spector was either:

    A) stunned by the verdict

    OR

    B) standing nearby when the Ark of the Covenant was opened.

    If you're old enough to remember the movie "Easy Rider," Phil Spector played the dude in the limo making the drug buy at the very beginning of the film.

    And, yes, I'd consider him a "celebrity." He was probably one of the five most influential producers in the history of popular music.

    Quincy was responsible for the beats behind the biggest selling album of all time. That is talent and influence. He also had a hand in Bad and Dangerous, which were huge albums.

    Sorry. She played his wife in the scene at the graduation dance at the end of the movie. My bad. It's fixed.
