I worked with Spector in the early 60's in New York City when he was a talented tyrant in the studio. At that time his assistant was a nobody named Sonny Bono who he treated worse than crap. Even in those days he had a habit of waving a pistol around and scaring the snot out of everybody who were afraid he would kill someone. Little known fact: I actually went out with his first wife Ronnie (Veronica) before he met her, when she was an unknown Go-Go dancer at a NYC nightclub.
Thats a cool story,
I saw her perform a while ago with Eddie Money.
Eddie was washed up, to be polite about it.
Ronnie looked a bit heavy for her dress, but she was still ronnie. :)
They were the bad girls of the scene back then weren't they?
Hip!
