During his career as a producer, Spector became famous for developing the “Wall Of Sound” technique with his “Wrecking Crew” of studio musicians that essentially boosted everything happening in the studio to make a fuller sound that would sound more dramatic through the average speaker. The production technique earned Spector multiple top 10 hits in the ‘60s, perhaps most famously “Be My Baby” by the Ronettes, and it made him a superstar producer and highly influential figure in rock music.
