	Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jerry Leiber (born April 25, 1933) and Mike Stoller (born March 13, 1933) are among the most important songwriters and music producers in post-World War II popular music.
		After school, Stoller played drums and Leiber worked in a record store and, when they met, they found they shared a love of blues and rhythm and blues.
		Phil Spector served an "apprenticeship" of sorts with Leiber and Stoller in New York, developing his record producer's craft while assisting and playing on their sessions, including guitar on "On Broadway".

		As with Leiber and Stoller, Goffin’s later work included biting lyrics and adult emotions; if America had had anything like the thriving Broadway stage it had once had, some of these people might have continued to be the voices of their generation, as both they and their contemporaries matured.
