<i>BTW, Back To Mono is going for $17 new on Amazon. </i>

wtf? have sales plummeted since his arrest? do they not want to appear to be capitalizing on his notoriety? i paid $75 for that sucker back in the 1990s!!

Record stores are flooded with copies.
I suspect the good ol boys at Abkco are trying to silently show their support.

Latest: homwhatcide?

are you saying she was a homo?

homo = self so yeah everyone is.

oh.

Ban Lara Clarkson! Killing herself like that, tss.

(homo = human, auto = self, imho, but that doesn't matter now)

homos = same

cide?

probably gang related. eascide, wescide.

homo + caedo (perf. = cecidi) = homicide (man + slaughter)

homos + sexus = homosexual (same + sex)

the latter is a bastardisation of a greek prefix and a latin suffix, the former is entirely latin

oh noes, sonned in an internet greek/latin beef :-(

POSSESSUS

Hang on a minute, I'm getting confused here - is Spector being accused of shooting Westlife now? Surely he should get the keys to the city!

(Hamburg Ramönes - album: Free Phil Spector)

Give me strength!

I mean, they might actually be good! But, hey let's free the guy OK so he might have killed someone but hey it's the famous/genius Phil Spector!!!

What next, the Hamburg Mike Leanders?

It's time he came up with something new, why not let him ponder Wall Of Jail for a while?

Don't know them, but they can't be any worse than Starsailor.

Mike Leander never killed anyone.

No but then the "Hamburg Mike Leanders" new album being "Free Gary Glitter" etc...

Does this mean that Dale will stop playing My Sweet Lord, Imagine, Unchained Melody etc. whenever they come up on POTP?

bump before andi's head explodes

Kaboom?

haha I take it you locked it. So what's the latest? I don't watch cable news or anything.

I'm not sure myself. Something about contempt of court against one of the lawyers.

i was completely kidding around in that other thread. i'm surprised that got locked. sorry, i guess?

i was serious in my second post of it, though.

his ex-lawyer didn't want to testify against him. she didn't say a word. she's been held in contempt, now.

bruce cutler's soul past through me, that's all i can say.

A bit off track, but "Tearing Down the Wall of Sound" is a totally addictive read. The interviews between the author and Spector took place a mere six weeks before "the incident".

UH:

The week’s most dubious highlight came when the defense played Lana Unleashed, Clarkson’s portfolio video designed to showcase her comedic talents. Prosecutors Alan Jackson and Pat Dixon begged Fidler to block the screening but the judge ignored their pleas. The video quickly made clear why Clarkson did not have her own Comedy Central show. Her self-written sketches, intended to demonstrate Clarkson’s range of characterizations and dialects, appeared desperately unfunny on the courtroom screen. She was dying up there — all over again.

It also became obvious why Spector’s lawyers fought to have the video shown. In one segment Clarkson performs a black-face impersonation of singer Little Richard selling a line of African-American cosmetics on TV. The sketch was nothing more than a coon show and seemed to drag on for hours as reporters kept an eye on the jury’s three black members, who watched with frozen expressions. (“Little Richard’s” cosmetic kit — called “Makeup Kit for Dummies” — included minibar bottles of liquor and plastic pieces of a black man’s face.)

Obviously this doesn't excuse Spector in the slightest but Jesus H.

Court TV has the video.

Obviously this doesn't excuse Spector in the slightest

I mean maybe she went into her "routine." Justifiable homicide.

The other lawyer who quit today.

why would that video of her shitty comedy be admissible?

Jury cant reach a verdict.

I didn't know she was in Fast Times at Ridgemont High...

she was the science teacher's bombshell wife

appalling

Have a heart, he just switched to Sanka.

why would that video of her shitty comedy be admissible?

I think because it fit the defense argument that she shot herself in a desperate attempt to bring attention to her failing career. Focusing on a terrible audition reel would make sense if you think she was so unfunny she would have needed an insane stunt to raise her stock up. And if you ignore the forensic evidence.

the forensic evidence seems so massively stacked against him.

money buys "justice" once again.

The mansion is for sale.
