Wall of Sound


In honor of the craz-ma-taze Phil Spector, who was recently found guilty of murdering a woman (umm, special), I wanted to post this amazing song by the Flirtations: "Nothing But a Heartache" –a perfect example of Spector's Wall of Sound, which Wikipedia defines as "a music production technique for pop and rock music recordings that has a number of electric and acoustic guitarists performing the same parts in unison, adding musical arrangements for large groups of musicians up to the size of orchestras, and then recording the sound using an echo chamber."
