LOS ANGELES — Phil Spector, the eccentric and revolutionary music producer who transformed rock music with his “Wall of Sound” method and who later was convicted of murder, has died. He was 81.
California state prison officials said he died Saturday of natural causes at a hospital.
Born in New York City in 1939, Specter rose to fame in the early 1960s by working with artists like Ronnie Crawford and the Top Notes. Throughout the decade, helped forever transform the sound of pop music through his innovative "Wall of Sound" method, which employed dozens of microphones to capture unique sounds.
