Jewing Me, Jewing You
The Phil Spector jury has delivered a mistrial. In its honor, we present perhaps Phil's strangest collaboration ever.
OMG! No fucking way I can listen to that. Her voice always made me clench. The only one that drove me even crazier was Buffy St. Marie ... in her case, I had to leave the room. Maria Muldaur, too. Eek.
But still, what a trip! Especially with Donovan introducing it. And the Cher lookalike in the audience.

WTF! Cancel my hearing for life. I don't want to think of THAT SOUND eveeerrrr again.
ReplyDeleteA classic what where they thinking of? moment...
ReplyDeleteThe rest of the movie's pretty great, but this is...a trainwreck.
:-)
Sweet creeping Jesus! Steve, why??
ReplyDeleteSo THAT'S how he got the "Wall of Sound" - he put the piano beside the tympani! Obvious, when you think about it...
ReplyDeleteIf the jury had seen that, Phil would have been fried last week.
Strange!
ReplyDeleteCompelling!
Strangely compelling.
I know it doesn't work, but I find it strangely compelling. Not exactly like watching a train wreck, but not entirely unlike watching a train wreck.

Let's not drag religion into this, shall we?
ReplyDeleteThat said, YIPES!
She even looks fucking goofy.
ReplyDeleteActually worse than the album Spector did with Leonard Cohen! Wrong, so wrong ...
ReplyDeletean insult to trainwrecks everywhere... yet my neck is stiff from watching it
ReplyDeleteI like it. I thought you meant the verdict, or lack thereof.
