A very interesting person to say the least. There's a really good book called Tearing Down The Wall Of Sound by Mick Brown which is a very good read.
He recorded some truly groundbreaking music but also was a total loon. The Ramones were scared of his gun-toting craziness and the recording of John Lennon's Rock 'N' Roll album sounded like total chaos
Lennon initially teamed up with producer Phil Spector to record the album,[6][7] letting Spector have full control.[8][9] Spector chose some of the songs, booked the studio, and the musicians.[8] When news got around that Lennon was in Hollywood making a record, every musician there wanted to be part of the sessions.[5] In mid-October 1973, sessions were booked at A&M Studios,[9] with many of them having over 30 musicians,[8] but the sessions quickly fell into disarray–fueled by alcohol.[6] Spector once showed up dressed in a surgeon's outfit and shot a gun in the ceiling of the studio, hurting Lennon's ears.[5][10] On another occasion, a bottle of whiskey had spilled on the A&M Studio's mixing console causing future sessions to be banned from the facility.[5] Unknown to Lennon, each night Spector would remove the master tapes from the studio, and move them to his house.[8][9] Spector then disappeared with the session tapes[6][8] and would not be heard from for several months. Spector made one cryptic call to Lennon, claiming to have the "John Dean tapes" from the recent Watergate scandal; Lennon deduced that Spector meant he had the album's master tapes
But I love his music, his production and the Wall Of Sound.

I've seen Ronnie spector a couple of times. She was basically locked in their house from 68-74, guns all around. Think he paid ike Turner something like 10k to stay away from the River deep sessions, so he could fully manipulate Tina without Ike's already drug fuel temper geeting in the way. a dangerous mix!

The in-laws are from Hyde, Shipman was a very highly regarded GP , until, you know.
I once met an NHS auditor investigating prescribing practices in the local health authority. It wasn't Shipman's prescribing that were causing concern....
