Phil Spector while completely mad was a music genius. His Wall Of Sound still can't be beat.
True and he should have given Darlene Love more credit
Beyond Mad? Makes you wonder why he wasn't forced into medical help, before it became more than abuse?
@@jimboyer5382 Sometimes when mental problem people are treated and lose the problem they lose the crazy unbelievable ability they had
@@rickrick5041 except the music he produced is completely apart from his mental health, and even if it was that doesn't mean his productions would have been forced to decrease in quality or whatever. He in fact, sought professional help in the 60s and by the 70s, with no professional treatment or attention, already decreased in productive activity at work.
Stop repeating what everybody else says. Makes you look dumb, you know? As if you lack critical thinking.
Phil Spector was a genius. He gave us great music in the 60’s. He was the best record producer of his time
He fancied himself a songwriter also and took partial credit on many great songs that he had nothing to do with the writing...great producer though and growing up listening to Philles label recordings was the highlight of the early sixties.
He was a musical genius as a producer, but his ending was so sad. He shot and killed that woman in a drunken or drugged out stupor. Then he spent his last years in prison and died of Covid that he caught there. Such a waste.
Kudos to Miss Darlene Love. 80 years old and still kicking it!
It took my decades to find out it wasn’t the Crystals.Just randomly googled the song. Cause I thought something was weird lol.
Rock and roll royalty. She delivered the goods, every single time.
Hi Phil, You might have been crazy but those of us that grew up with your products say thanks.
Spector was a nut but sure gave us great music.

Well said
The nuts are always the best cuz they crazy 🤪
True, he was pretty talented though with his songwriting; he wrote some gems.
I’m setting here singing this song thanks for posting
Quintessential Spector... My Lord, I miss this kind of music... Don't y'all miss it?
No..it’s here,,
Yeah, I miss it! But thanks to You Tube can still listen! Boren in the 50's still love this!
@@johnbreslin1442 I used to hear this every day on the radio! Miss this music!
you just don't hear music like these anymore now adays!
Just keep playing it...always in our ❤❤❤
Wall of sound....Hal Blaine on drums...Doesn't get any better. RIP Hal...
Yeah! The Wrecking Crew!
@@jamestyler8549 Heh, heh. Sorry. Blaine was one of many session musicians who replaced more "suit & tie" types as R&R took over the industry. The suits claimed they were wrecking the business. Not so, as evidenced by the many hits they played on. They'd be on a par with Motown's Funk Brothers, and Booker T. & the MGs (with Steve Cropper & Donald "Duck" Dunn) in Memphis. If you're, interested, the documentary DVD "The Wrecking Crew" is great, as is the book "Sound Explosion", also about them, their work, and members which included guys like Glen Campbell and Leon Russell.
Now I am N the know. Thanks.@@brucestaples4510
@@brucestaples4510 "The Wrecking Crew" documentary is nothing less than AWESOME! For everyone who loves music or even music history, it's a MUST to watch.
Thats crazy, they crank, I fucked with them on the Aquarius song....
Darlene Love made this song so great, No one can ever take that voice from her!!! So sorry Phil! Glad Ronnie finally left you!
I remember hearing these songs when i was a kid. I love these songs. Great childhood memories.
The lyrics definitely captured the time it was revolutionary.
Loved all these songs back in the 60's!
the 60's music was considered the greatest area of music,ever
Phil Spector ... the greatest American record producer of the 20th Century.
Candace O Hara I agree with you .Phil Spector the greatest 🎺🎵🎷💰🎙️🎼👍
Many would argue Nelson Riddle.
@@HolgerRuneFan I agree. Nelson Riddle merits such consideration.
And a murderer
@@davecooke7868 Yes, unfortunately, he's that too.
15 years ago today.
That's when the world lost the most TALENTED SINGER /SONGWRITER, ever to grace any stage or screen.
Strange that nobody has ever ( to date) had a major hit with a remake of any of his songs ! !
On the other hand , if you listen to the garbage on the airwaves today, I think it was always best coming from THE MASTER HIMSELF.
THE MAN, MR. GENE PITNEY.
Love this song and group. Grew up with this music. No one prettier than Darlene Love
RIP Phil Spector. To know him is to love his music. River Deep Mountain High.
RIP Phil Spector
PERFECTION.....BEST SONG OF 1962. And that's saying alot,there were many great tunes from that year.
Darlene Love’s gorgeous voice with so much character is the voice imprinted on my 69 year old brain forever.
Sad 😞 It peaked at Number #2. It was on the Billboard charts for 10 weeks!!!
Love you, Darlene Love 🌹❤️💫
Who's singing la la brooks or Darlene love both had the crystals name plus Darlene group was called the blossoms.
@@shizueleighhicks6174 "He's A Rebel" peaked at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 the week ending November 3, 1962.
i agree with you but for some reason, there's some confusion regarding its greatness. By that I mean the following: despite being the number one song on Billboard's Hot 100 for 2 consecutive weeks in early november, it failed to make its way onto Billboard's 1962 year-end top 100 hits. (BTW, the Crystals' single, "Uptown", made it to #72 in their year-end top 100. Additionally, "Rebel" did not appear in the 1963 edition of Billboard's Top 100 - i thought they may have catalogued it for 1963 bc it was still selling a few copies in '63-- i was mistaken).
Here's the wikipedia link documenting Billlboard's screw-up (coincidentally, they also snubbed the 4 Season's "Big Girls Don't Cry", the song that replaced "Rebel" at the top of the Billboard chart in mid November):
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billboard_Year-End_Hot_100_singles_of_1962
This was real music not the rubbish you hear today.
Phil Spector lives
I love this stuff!
I miss it!
Each song was unique
and always told a story.
I’m 69. You said a mouthful. Every Spector-produced star still shines bright 65+ years later. They will go on👏👏👏👏👏💫💫💥💫💫💥💫🌈👏👏👏👏👏
How can you miss it? It's right in front of you and the nice part is, you can go from one to another but 'way back then', you had to wait months for the next one to be released. We're the lucky ones- we've got them all at our fingertips
Phil was a wack job , no doubt but was a brilliant producer.
The Ronettes and Darlene Love Christmas songs from 63 when i
was 6 are forever in my memory banks as some of the best Christmas
songs ever. Not to mention all the rest of the wall of sound songs. RIP Phil.
Love them all a💙😘
Classical, Gospel, and more. There's a lot going on here...
He sure produce some beautiful music
What a wonderful song! I bet he is a wonderful man and husband!
Great Wall of Sound tune written by the one and only Gene Pitney. Cheers, '62 Mathew St. (Total Retro Rock)
OlRetro thanks for the memories. Tom Piontek
Best Version ever!
Just lovely to listen to this music over and over again. Good times good years!!
the best
I love this song I’m a 36yr old punker but this song is just so catchy and edgy for its time
I am 67 and grew up with this!
@@rhondaboncutter5812 Me too, at 71.
Wow! My kids are older than you, and thanks for appreciating the tune. He wasn't the nicest guy in the world, but man, could he produce a record. See "Wall of Sound", and "60's Girl groups". You might enjoy.
@@brucestaples4510 I learned of him through the ramones 😂 but yeah I’ll definitely look into it
@@daoust26 P.S. - Depending upon the depth of your musical interests, you might wanna check out "The Wrecking Crew" (video &/or book), the musicians behind more songs than I can name whose members included guys like Glen Campbell and Leon Russell (big names) and many others who never got credit for their outstanding contributions to music. They were kinda equivalent to the Funk Brothers in Motown, and Booker T. & the MGs (containing Steve Cropper and Donald "Duck" Dunn) in Memphis. Enjoy! 🎶🎤😁
Such a beautiful song right here 💕
Love Darlene Love!!
Oh kids, if you've found yourself here, then there's still hope for your generation.
Dark n light 🕯️
Listening to this in the theater in full surround the other night was so AWSOME!!! The soundtrack on BAD TIMES AT EL ROYAL was soooo good!!! As was the movie!!! I was stunned at how GOOD THIS SONG is 'till this day!!! Think what you may about Spector, this song is a true Masterpiece.
YOOO, ONE OF THE GREATEST HITS OF THE EARLY 60'S AND STILL IS
So very much true
0:49 is oh-so-neo-Baroque. Very catchy and magical.
Love this classic ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hes a rebel was a hit in the early sixties one i really liked and still do
I do to
Me too use to jive to this must have only been 15 or so love it a favourite of mine.
Written by Gene Pitney. It kept his own record, "Only Love Can Break a Heart, from reaching #1.
RİP PHİL THANK YOU FOR YOUR REBEL ART🎼🎵🎶
you know everyone was shakin their groove thang to this one
Hello Betty how are you doing,hope you are enjoying your day?
Beautiful
Actually i sung by the Blossoms featuring Darlene Love.
The irony of this record does not escape me. It was written by singer song writer Gene Pitney. It went all the way to #1. #2 was "Only Love Can Break a Heart", the highest charting song sung by Gene Pitney. His record, written by someone else, was kept from #1 by a record he wrote for someone else.
This music talks to me ..bravo
Hello how are you doing,hope you are enjoying your day?
RIP Phil Spector May G-d grant him peace I know what he did was heinous but he was a musical genus
RIP Phil Spector.
I love this song so much 💕🎶
I do love a rebel..
Perhaps that's where I've been going wrong all my life haha
I was a Rebel! 1970, got married at 16!
Spector could've lived anywhere in the world, but in L.A. that usually means Malibu, Bel Air, affluent neighborhoods for the rich and famous, but the fact that he chose to live in Alhambra (a regular working class neighborhood) as his home was kinda strange. It was there where the murder of Lana Clarkson took place. Even stranger is the home is a hilltop castle above a regular neighborhood. Pyrenees Castle
Hello how are you doing,hope you are enjoying your day?
Pure Genius 😎
Lyrics:
See the way he walks down the street
Watch the way he shuffles his feet
My, he holds his head up high
When he goes walking by
He’s my guy
When he holds my hands, I’m so proud
‘Cause he’s not just one of the crowd
Why is he always be the one
To try the things they’ve never done?
Just because of that, they say:
“He’s a rebel and he’ll never ever be any good
He’s a rebel ‘cause he never ever does what he should”
But just because he doesn’t do what everybody else does
That’s no reason why I can’t give him all my love
He’s always good to me
Always treats me tenderly
‘Cause he’s not a rebel, no, no, no
He’s not a rebel, no, no, no, to me
If they don’t like him that way
They won’t like me, I’m sure, today
I’ll be standing right by his side
When they say:
“He’s a rebel and he’ll never ever be any good
He’s a rebel ‘cause he never ever does what he should”
But just because he doesn’t do what everybody else does
That’s no reason why we can’t share love
He’s always good to me
Good to him, I’ll try to be
‘Cause he’s not a rebel, no, no, no
He’s not a rebel, no, no, no, to me
Oh he’s not a rebel, no, no, no
He’s not a rebel, no, no, no
Man, write a song like this and you're entitled to put your feet up. You've done your part for humanity and rock n roll.
As a young boy riding in my older sibling's 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible with 427 motor with this playing on the radio. The car was Sunflower Yellow with the Black Racing Stripes down the middle. On the front bumper in the middle was a white tag that said : Made In America across the top with big letters in the center that said U S A in red white and blue. The interior was white leather with black and chrome in all the right places. The radio played this song and many others from Phil Spector that bring back such fond memories.
I grew up with this music takes me back to my childhood love it❤💙
Every song has a story
My tune.
Gotta luv a bad boy even as young as 10, 11 yrs. old whenever this song came out. Totally.
Love this song so much
what great music Phil Specter made, its to bad he was so nuts.
So cool looking!!!
He sure is my guy. Phil Spector is a genius! Love his music.

PHIL SPECTOR IS A "MURDERER" - IN PRISON WHERE THE RETCHED CREATURE BELONGS ‼️😡
HE HAS BEEN INSANE "ALL HIS LIFE"‼️
ANY "GENIUS" HE "PURPORTEDLY" POSSESSED, WAS COMPLETELY NEGATED WHEN HE SHOT, (IN THE MOUTH), AND KILLED AN INNOCENT WOMAN, FOR "NO REASON AT ALL" 😡❗
RIP, LANA CLARKSON 🙏 😥

Hello how are you doing,hope you are enjoying your day?
Love when I grew up, got to love all these songs!
Best time ever to grow up
sounds like everyone knew PS didn't play with a full deck but most have said he was a music genius.....amazing....
Шикарнейшая музыка, великолепные песни звучали полвека назад!!! Люблю это время!!!
Love this style of music! Trivia: shared a restroom with Phil during his trial. I really wanted to say something to him about his music production but knew I couldn't.
I really miss this music too❤️
Hello how are you doing,hope you are enjoying your day?
for 2024 it needs to be remastered by someone who rode in a 1966 caddillac!
try listening to "g-eazy's remake of this"
I think of cry-baby when I hear this song.
Miss The Wall Of Sound!!
Love this song.eaven more when iam cruising my classic chevrolet
According to Darlene's book Phil was working at Liberty records and heard the demo of "He's A Rebel" by Vikki Carr and thought he could really do something with it with the Crystals! Liberty was getting ready to release Vikki's version so Phil had to hurry and get the recording done and out fast! Problem was that the Crystals were in NY and HE in LA so he asked his then partner(Lester Sill) thus the name of the label PHIL LES if he knew of a strong vocal singer that could record in a hurry! Lester contacted Darlene and asked her and to bring her group to do the session! Darlene agreed but wanted triple scale to do it! It was agreed she would get triple scale which then was $3000! So it is Darlene Fanita James and Jack Nitzche's wife Garcia on Rebel! Darlene knew Phil was going to put the Crystals name on it and didn't care for as far as she was concerned this was just another recording session for the Blossoms and has said she didn't even care for the song that it was just another teenage anthem so she didn't care who's name was on it but not knowing how big a hit this would become and the fact that the world would now know the name Phil Spector! It wasn't until after she recorded Rebel that she was told she was gonna get her name credited to the next Crystals single "He's Sure the Boy I Love" but that's when Phil backed out on putting her name on the label and still continued to use the Crystals name and that's when things heated between Phil and Darlene!
I think La La Brooks used to sing this.
Why all the exclamation points after EVERY sentence?
Who cares!
@@stjohnbaby I don't care either. Just trying to understand the 'rationale' behind it. Grammar guides say the exclamation point should be used sparingly, as it “indicates extreme pain, fear, astonishment, anger, disgust, or yelling.”.
When's the last time you saw someone compose a paragrah of 12 sentences and put an exclamation point after every sentence? Probably never. lol
@@Beaglemaster3 The period on his keyboard didn't work!!!!!!
phil knew his music lots of hits
there will never be the good ol 60s ever again not in this world!
Great song!
A great song from my past! The bad guys always got the girls!
Amazing song " Phil Spector " was a genius !!...When I listen to all his songs it makes me feel so in love with a person that doesn’t exist in real life. aahhh ❤️The words in the song I feel them on a spiritual level.."spiritual high" --> Be my Baby..make me have nostalgia....of a world that is long gone
...now we live in sick society with sick enslavement "Nazi government". --- > fuckk
The good olds day gone forever.
-
Les Paul had demonstrated to the world that Spector's old fashioned recording techniques were already outmoded...some like in 1949! But Spector did it his way with multiple intstrumentalists in a small room instead of multiple images on tape, which is how the way the world has been recording everything.
Probably three drummers there but you can't miss Blaine. When I was learning drums, my teachers were Charlie Watts and whoever it was on those Philles 45s (Blaine). Double RIP to those two.
Immortal!
Great song even to listen during 2020 pandemic.
Genius.
Rest in peace Mr. Specter...
And another great bari solo from Steve "Teenage" Douglas. RIP Steve. Now you can breathe.
a brilliant song
great song
One word genius 👍👌👏
OH MY! A SONG LOOKED LIKE 1960S!
This is the great American music the English teensgers were listening to, and inspired all of the grest English bands, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Animals, and on and on, and they in turn came back to America 2 or 3 years later with the grest British Invasion of the American music scene.From America to England and back.
....WOW !
Man that is just too damn good. Phil was crazy but the sob could make great music.
This song takes me back to grade school and the boy I liked at the time just puppy love !!
I love walking and re liveing my youth
I heard this song as a little kid but didn't hear it again until Cold Case played it.
Wall of Sound...
Great sax line
J'adore
Yea my guy
Ésto es maravillosa y verde música y canción! ❤️🌹🙏
I may not be a spector, but I am a Phil.
Very nice singing.
