Ronnie Spector RIP

I really loved her voice and she had some of the best Christmas music out there. Looks like she had a brief battle with cancer. RIP Ronnie Always loved what I consider her comeback hit with Eddie Money.

Nobody quite captured that 60s girl group wall of sound again. A frozen moment in music time those days were.

I know most think Dirty Dancing when they hear Be My Baby....me, I think Mean Sreets

Didn’t know this… but Zendaya is supposed to play her in a biopic.

Re: Ronnie Spector RIP

She also did a really nice cover of the Beach Boys song, "Don't Worry Baby" in the 80's - altho the song was initially written for her and the Ronettes to record by Brian Wilson, but Phil wouldn't allow it:

RIP

Love The Ronettes.

Bummed that I never got to see her sing live, especially when she was one of the headliners at the (formerly named) Burger Boogaloo in Oakland, CA.
