STARSAILOR have spoken about their experiences of working with disgraced producer Phil Spector.
Frontman James Walsh said Spector, who was yesterday found guilty of murdering model Lana Clarkson, was difficult to work with.
He said: "The two tracks 'Silence Is Easy' and 'White Dove' were recorded in the first week of working with him.
"He then returned to LA and came back to England some weeks later a different character.
"The out going charismatic producer we had met previously had become withdrawn and hard to communicate with.
"We persevered as long as we could out of respect for the man and his reputation but we had to call it a day after a while."
And he added that it was only weeks after they parted ways with Spector that he heard about his arrest for murder.
He said: "It is hard for me to pass judgment on whether he is guilty or innocent. We certainly never saw an aggressive side to him while we worked with him but like everybody else we do not know exactly what went on inside that house."
Starsailor released new album All The Plans last month.
