He's a Rebel by Mark Ribowsky
This new edition of the definitive Phil Spector biography brings the book completely up to date through Spector's upcoming murder trial and its verdict This is an update of the definitive biography of Phil Spector, the legendary producer and architect of 'Wall of Sound' that anchored such hits as "Be My Baby", "And Then He Kissed Me" and "River Deep, Mountain High". Now about to stand trial for the murder of actress Lana Clarkson, this new edition of "He's a Rebel" will include the inside scoop on the trial and the aftermath, as well as memorably impart the gripping, strange and disturbing life of the man Tom Wolfe famously dubbed 'the first tycoon of teen.'
"A rich, racy inside-show-biz story, with enough backstabbing to dye the Borgias' drapes and a madman cast ranging from John Lennon and Lenny Bruce to Sonny Bono.. (Ribowsky) springs terrific quotes form Spector's few friends and many foes." Vanity Fair "The virtue of Ribowsky's book is that he brings the story down to earth without sacrificing its drama. Relying on frank and extensive interviews... Ribowsky doesn't shrink from cruelty or even horror, but while in so many biographies the subject's work is obliterated by the facts of the subject's life, here it is the work that gives the life its interest. Ribowsky spends time on details other writers have taken for granted." Greil Marcus"
