And So This Is Christmas
Up on the 17th floor of the St. Regis Hotel in New York City, John Lennon is on his hands and knees, wading through a pile of Presley singles.
August 1, 1972
(And So This Is Christmas is the first chapter from Richard Williams’ book, Out of His Head: The Sound of Phil Spector, recently published by Outerbridge and Diesntfrey. It’s a good book, complete with all the discographical information a Spector freak would want, and presents a more than just interesting look at a man who changed the shape of the whole rock and roll scene: Phil Spector, rock’s first real producer.
And who else would bring you Christmas in July? -Ed.)
