I\u2019m more of a 45 girl myself, but I figured it wouldn\u2019t hurt to at least give it a quick perusal. It was on this day that I found a really bad ass record that I knew needed to be in my collection.<\/p>\n<p>Really I should be thanking Aaron Marable for this one. Aaron works down at the Love Garden and when I brought the LP up to counter he said he was glad that he had taken it out of his personal collection so it could be appreciated by someone like me. With that, I will be playing this record on my next show as well as others that fit under the theme: Phil Spector Productions.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s difficult for me to be morally okay with playing this man\u2019s music for the following reasons<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>He\u2019s a total whack job.<\/li>\n<li>The wigs (insert link here <a href=\"http:\/\/wizbangblog.com\/images\/2005\/phil_spector_052005.jpg\">http:\/\/wizbangblog.com\/images\/2005\/phil_spector_052005.jpg<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>His penchant for pulling guns on musicians while working with them.<\/li>\n<li>The Lana Clarkson thing.<\/li>\n<li>Did I mention he\u2019s completely nuts?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>That being said, I really can\u2019t deny the fact that he\u2019s kind of a genius when it comes to music. Let\u2019s not forget that he\u2019s responsible for the Wall of Sound as well as other techniques in music production. And he gave us \u201c<a title=\"Be My Baby\" href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/QzhbGaCwBzs\" target=\"_blank\">Be My Baby<\/a>\u201d which, let\u2019s face it, pretty much <em>made <\/em>\u201cDirty Dancing.\u201d That one will of course be played on the show in addition to some other amazing songs that are compiled on the LP. We\u2019ll be hearing from The Ronettes, Veronica, Darlene Love, The Crystals and so on. There will also be some music from the Beatles\u2019 <em>Get Back<\/em> album, which Spector produced. Interesting aside, Paul McCartney was reportedly furious over the way Spector mastered \u201cThe Long and Winding Road\u201d which prompted the release of the album <em>Let It Be&#8230; Naked<\/em>, which was the original album stripped of all of Spector\u2019s add-ons.<\/p>\n<p>Anyhow, I hope you all tune in! It promises to be another entertaining installment of Vintage Vinyl with your humble host, DJ Modrey Hepburn.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"by emily scholle\" href=\"http:\/\/djmodreyhepburn.yolasite.com\/blog.php\" target=\"_blank\">by emily scholle<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<em>tune in to vintage vinyl every wednesday night from 10 p.m. to midnight<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A single LP inspires Vintage Vinyl&#8217;s next show.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4332,"featured_media":7101,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[395,23],"class_list":["post-7097","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","tag-emily-scholle","tag-vintage-vinyl"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/phil_spector-wall_of_sound_volume_5._rare_masters.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7097","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4332"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7097"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7097\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7101"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7097"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7097"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7097"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
