Dave Thompson

Wall of pain : the biography of Phil Spector Dave Thompson

Through the 1960s, he was the Tycoon Of Teen. Through the 1970s, he was the Mad Genius. And for the next 20 years, until the death of actress Lana Clarkson threw him back under the spotlight, he was rock's most legendary recluse. Phil Spector defined the way we listen to music and, by refusing to play the game, helped to define the way we look at modern celebrities.
