A musical genius but obviously a very disturbed individual.

I wonder if some sort of psychiatric institution would be more appropriate than prison ?

nope, prison is for those who murder (except mayeb oj ).

a case could be made that anyone who kills someone else must have something mentaly wrong with them but there are a great many people who have genuine mental issues that still wouldnt kill anyone.

Oh Go on then!
I'll bite.
Musical genius my bottom. One trick pony, yes!
Better off in a psychiatric institution IMHYCO.

Is it a conspiracy?

Yes, anyone who denies his contribution to music production is simply declaring they are clueless imhyco

I said that he was a one trick pony.

Psychiatric place is where he needs to go, but he comitted the crime so he must do the time . He was so confident because of his status he would get not convicted but obviously the jury had other ideas, all the evidence pointed towards him and he couldn't worm his way out of it. Heard some of his music stuff, it's really good but he's a disturbed man.

Stock, Aitken and Waterman. Life, no parole.

Well the wall of sound was his signature sound radically different from the usual approach to making pop records in his day, not sure it's fair to say he's a one trick pony. He was a pioneer. albeit a looney as well.

Now there's a genuine reason for bringing back the death penalty.

I like 'em both too. I'm just saying that at the time I remember hearing the Kinks and thinking that, "This is my music!"
*stops digging hole*

Nana Mouskouri was my turning point. The Passport album.

Excuse me for going slightly off topic but..

One thing I find rather strange with celebrity trials (OJ, Spector..) is the value of forensic evidence. When we hear about trials involving the average man on the street, it is presented as proof positive. Pour in a bigger budget and it seems to become less and less of an exact science.

That said, didn't buy Phil his freedom.

I'm sure that defence teams will eventually find fault.
Remember when fingerprints were deemed foolproof?
Then they discovered that they could be transferred.

Spot on Comrade....


The famous musician David Gilmour CBE, formerly of Pink Floyd, is supporting Gary McKinnon's cause, by helping to sing on a Protest Song, which will hopefully penetrate the massive "security" and media hype surrounding President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Gordon Brown, which is frightening off so many peaceful democratic protestors from the G20 summit in London next week.

Spector was involved in one of Starsailor's albums!

I'm leaving well alone now.

Hardly a music genius, but he is in the best place though. Should've got life though.

He is a killer, found guilty of murder by a jury of his peers- bang him up in prison where he belongs. As the horrendous Saskia BB6 would say' END OF'!

Sorry, but I have no idea who he is. Who did he off?

It's hard to believe a pop music legend would end up in this situation.

He was either a musical genius, or a one trick pony, from the sixties who invented the wall of sound, either the best musical thing ever, or a vastly over-rated crock.
He shot dead a 40 year old woman at his house.
