    John Lennon supposedly ordered him out of a studio session after he was firing a gun inside the building. Bang bang, shoot shoot.

    Quite the lead here.
    Such a bummer that a genius' legacy was marred by a piddling detail like a murder conviction.

    Tom Wolfe did a profile of Spector in 1964 when Wolfe worked for the Herald Trib. It's in Kandy-Kolored Tangerine Flake Streamline Baby, his collection of newspaper and magazine pieces published in 1964. Piece makes clear that Spector was completely batshit insane even then, although without citing obvious malevolence.
