Subject: RE: Obit: Phil Spector (1939-2021)
The word "genius" is, I think we can agree, applied rather too liberally these days.
To be fair, many of those so described might themselves dismiss the suggestion.
Even some child prodigies don't, in the end, justify the title.
On a less rarefied note, if the producer of "You've Lost that Loving Feeing" is a genius, what does that make its composers ?
