Phil Spector, the iconic producer known for “The Wall of Sound,” has died at the age of 81.
The Washington Post, and other sources, report Spector died from complications from COVID-19. Spector, who is serving a 19-to-life murder sentence, reportedly tested positive for COVID-19 four weeks ago and was transferred from prison to a local hospital for treatment. While Spector returned to prison once he was deemed well enough to leave the hospital, he was reportedly rushed back to the hospital following breathing issues.
An official statement has yet to be released regarding Spector’s death.
