Has Phil Spector gotten a bloody taste of jail-yard justice? The hot-tempered music legend is minding his tongue after having several teeth knocked out by a fellow inmate at the state prison in Corcoran, Calif., two Spector confidants tell us.

"Phil has quite a mouth on him," says longtime pal and defender Steven Escobar. "Not everyone understands his humor. He said the wrong thing to the wrong inmate in the yard."

Lacking any of his trusty firearms, Spector wound up with a bruised nose, black eye and the loss of a couple of caps, according to Escobar.

First Madoff, now Phil. Prison justice knows no boundaries. Oh well.

Given his history, he may not survive if he is kept in the general population. Without his bodyguard or gun, being a little old man might be a bit dicey for him. Of course Charles Manson had someone set him on fire a while back, so Phil might want solitary.

Was it assault with a deadly blowdryer?

So, Phil Spector was shooting off HIS mouth.
Jeez, talk about karma....

Somebody never watched Lock Up on MSNBC after hours. You better keep your mouth CLOSED.

Or OZ on HBO.

Shooting off his mouth is a little more difficult when he can't back it up mano-a-mano.

THIS CASE CONFUSES ME. HE TOOK A "B" MOVIE ACTRESS OUT ON A DATE (SHE HOPED HE WOULD HELP HER GET BETTER MOVIE ROLES, BUT HE IS A RECORD PRODUCER.).

SHE WANTS TO GO TO HIS HOUSE. THEY ARE BOTH DRUNK. HE SUPPOSEDLY KILLS HER WITH HER GUN? (SHE WAS A TALL, WELL-TONED WOMAN. HE IS AN OLD MAN.)

DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.

You're confused by a tall well-toned woman being shot by an old man using a gun? What about that doesn't make sense to you?

Phil needs to be separated from humanity in and out of prison. He's never been known to play well with others.

That why he is in prison with the rest of the humanity separatists.

His former Playboy model wife, 29, is excited about the album they recorded before the 70-year-old's murder conviction. Also, she's singing his praises. You can't make this stuff up.
