| If Wikipedia is to be believed (and I take it as gospel), Phil Spector produced one album for Leonard Cohen, and Spector resorted to secret late-night production sessions to keep Cohen out of the process so Phil could work his wall-of-sound sensibility. Cohen was none-too-pleased with the results. Cohen claims that at one point, Spector threatened him with a crossbow... I'm sure there's something in this anecdote that Jimmy can relate to. > Yeah, I shoulda mentioned it wasn't a cover, more inspired > by. But it is one of my favs on the album.
