Starsailor: Phil Spector Never Showed Us An Aggressive SideApril 15, 2009
Starsailor front man James Walsh has spoken out about the band's experiences of working with Phil Spector following the producer's conviction for murder earlier this week.
The band were the last act Spector produced when he worked on their 2003 album 'Silence Is Easy' and Walsh says he never revealed an aggressive side to them. In a statement he said: “It is hard for me to pass judgment on whether he is guilty or innocent. "We certainly never saw an aggressive side to him while we worked with him but like everybody else we do not know exactly what went on inside that house” Speaking about working with the legendary producer, Walsh added: “Recording with Phil Spector was an amazing experience at the time. “I had grown up with 'Imagine' and was just getting into the brilliant 'Born To Be With You'(the album Spector produced for Dion) when we got the call. The two tracks 'Silence Is Easy' and 'White Dove' were recorded in the first week of working with him. “He then returned to LA and came back to England some weeks later a different character. The out going charismatic producer we had met previously had become withdrawn and hard to communicate with. “We persevered as long as we could out of respect for the man and his reputation but we had to call it a day after a while. Some weeks later while the album was being mixed we heard he had been arrested for murder.” Spector will be sentenced on May 29.
