One of the great (and true) legends of rock-and-roll is that the Beach Boys’ Brian Wilson spent years idolizing the work of Phil Spector but also fearing that Spector wanted to kill him. Brian was paranoid, but Spector ultimately did become a homicidal maniac. It’s like the saying goes, just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean that they’re not out to get you.

There is also a story about Spector being seen in his home chasing John Lennon while firing his pistol.
Too much power corrupted and mentally corroded him. Mariah Carey was afraid of him.

Good Grief, I read the headline before my first cup of coffee.
First thing that came to my mind was Blondie being terrorized by Arlen Specter (D-R-D PA) .
Cartoon Blondie not Debbie Harry “Blondie”

He answered the door to his house with a [Colt] .45 in one hand and a bottle of Manischewitz wine in the other hand. The whole time he spoke in a WC Fields voice.

Nothing wrong with that. Nothing at all.

John Lennon, of all people, predicted that Spector was going to kill someone someday with one of his waved around guns.
