Tearing Down The Wall Of Sound by Mick Brown

The Rise and Fall of Phil Spector

A vivid, fast-moving biography that traces the rise of a legendary record producer from modest beginnings to global influence, detailing how his obsessive studio techniques and the “Wall of Sound” transformed 1960s pop through collaborations with girl groups and top session musicians; the book balances music history and insider interviews with reporting on his growing eccentricity, controlling personality and violent behavior, culminating in a dramatic fall from grace marked by a high-profile criminal case that reshaped his legacy.
