A lot of times the quality of albums vary with particular bands and often times it's a function of who the producer is

Who are some of your favorite producers?

Spector is a nut job but the dude was possibly the most revolutionary producer ever to walk into a studio.

ETA: I love this clip with Spector telling the story of his song being used without his permission. Mean Streets
