1970: Phil Spector notes (admiration) for...

George Harrison?
Yes. Written notes, song by song. So interesting to read:

Quoting:
"Harrison was anxious to work with Spector, having stockpiled nearly 30 songs for a solo album. And unlike The Beatles producer, Spector was overwhelmed by the maturity, the majesty and the diversity of the material presented to him. “It was endless,” Spector recalled. “He had literally hundreds of songs and each one was better than the rest. He had all this emotion built up when it was released to me”.

In written correspondence, Spector noted the “buried” vocals, the lack of “wailing sax”, not forgetting the trademark orchestral flourishes Spector was known for adding to pieces. What comes across most notably is Spector’s admiration for Harrison’s vocal prowess, perhaps feeling that he had been underserved by the albums in The Beatles canon."
