Spector music has been largely kept away from us. I believe it is still happening but there are still some that wait patiently. However, that population is getting much older and smaller. News that albums that we have had for over 40 years are coming out on CD does not seem to be cutting the mustard as much as it once might.
When UK Polydor put out those "Rare Masters", the Spector vault was not empty. The Crystal's "Chico Girl" confirms that. So if we take out that one track, is the vault still empty? I don't think so!
