While I was in Reno eating at Toucan Charlie's at the Atlantis, Phil Spector received his sentence today for second-degree murder in the death of actress Lana Clarkson. He received a life sentence, which in all probability will be the rest of his life. The sentence is 19 to 30 years, and he won't be up for parole until 2028, when he is about 88 years old, if he is still alive.
Spector pulled the gun one too many times, and he's getting what he deserves.
What a waste. He could have been remembered as one of popular music's greatest producers, but especially to younger people, he will be remembered as a zonked-out killer.
The only "wall of sound" he has are the walls of his prison cell.
