| | Phil Spector - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In 1970, Allen Klein, manager to three of the Beatles, had brought Spector to England to possibly record with the group, or produce for their label Apple Records. |  | | The influence of Phil Spector's sound and recording techniques is felt far beyond the recordings he actually produced. |  | | Despite the trend towards multi-channel recording, Spector was also vehemently opposed to stereo releases, claiming that it took control of the record's sound away from the producer in favor of the listener. |
