The Ronettes "Walking in the Rain” was recorded in October of 1964. In true bad girl fashion, Ronnie nailed the vocals for her favorite Ronettes track in one take.
Taken from her audience and stage at the peak of her career, Ronnie survived years of torment and abuse. What stands out in her story is not only what she endured, but what she reclaimed: her sense of self, her work, her stage and her joy…
On this day in 1963, The Ronettes’ "Be My Baby" hit #1 on the Cash Box Top 100. Sixty-three years later, that opening beat still resonates, and Ronnie’s voice still makes the world stop and listen.
Ronnie used to say that John “…understood all the things I wanted to know.” Remembering John Lennon on his birthday and celebrating a lifetime of music that continues to inspire.
