Phil Spector testifies...sort of

Phil Spector (who just keeps getting better looking with age) made rare recordings that will be heard for the first time.

This very cool event will happen Tuesday on Whodaguyhawaii internet Radio. In 1969 KHJ radio produced the monumental 48 hour HISTORY OF ROCK N’ ROLL. One of the features was an interview segment with then-recluse now-mistrial-defendant, Phil Spector. They did a neat thing called a “blindfold test”. Certain records were played for Phil and he shared his initial reactions to them. Snippets of this feature were featured on the HRR but not all of it (there was that 48 hour time crunch after all).

But the full confession…I mean, recordings of these Spector tapes were recently discovered and tomorrow Ron Jacobs (who IS da guy of whodaguyhawaii) will play them. It’s the first time they will ever be heard in their entirety.

For rock enthusiasts, music fans, and forensic experts everywhere this should be a must.

Again, that’s Whodaguyhawaii Radio. Mahalo.

Phil Spector: “to know him is to prosecute him”.

For the record: There were many versions of the HISTORY OF ROCK N' ROLL that came AFTER the KHJ version. The KHJ version was the original. The credits are as follows, and these dedicated people are the ONLY ones who deserve the credit for the HRR.
