Trade Review
'A remarkable book about fame, obsession, genius, money and madness ... this is the definitive study of the man *****' Observer 'Spector's life and work make an endlessly fascinating subject, and Brown's massive study does a terrific job ... a classic, very American tale of glory, conceit and ruin *****' Q 'A rare and wonderful mix of dogged research and vivid story-telling. Virtually every page carries a tale of farce or horror, or more often than not, both' Craig Brown's Book of the Week, Mail on Sunday 'A classic ... It's a triumph - beautifully written, utterly involving, scrupulously even-handed - and positions Brown shoulder-to-shoulder with the very best showbiz biographers' GQ
