This week, the conclusion of the Phil Spector story. Murder! Wigs! Murder and wigs! We get into the life and crimes of Famous Monster Phil Spector including the abuse of his wife Veronica Bennett of the Ronnettes, and, of course, the 2003 murder of actor Lana Clarkson, of which Spector was found guilty of in 2009. But the fun doesn't stop there. We explore his musical evolution from one of his first singles: To Know Him Is To Love Him, to his masterpiece: River Deep, Mountain High, to his final production: his third wife Rachelle Spector's here in my heart, off of her 2010 album "Out of My Chelle."
