When I came back to California in the early `60s I was hanging out with Jimmy Bowen, Phil Spector, and I wanted to be a record producer and work with other artists.

Warren Spector is amazing, and his team is as good as any in the business. Shame to see all the revenues from their game entangled with all the madness of the Dallas office.

The Phil Spector that I would meet has always been a nice, quiet, little guy who`s very serious about his work; obviously you can tell that because each and everything he`s ever done has always been charted.

That`s one reason why it`s pretty worthless, I can`t totally buy it, if you think about it, it`s things like the Phil Spector records. On one level they were rebellion, on another level they were keeping the teenager in his place.

Nowadays, the producer does everything, right down to telling the engineer what mics to use. Spector was more hands-on with the music side, but didn`t touch the desk [recording console]. He`d tell the bass player what to do, the drummer what beats to hit....
