    Such a loss. I defy anyone to name a more perfect song than "Be My Baby."

    She's a Legend, one of the greats for sure. I'll remember that voice as long as I can remember anything.

    Yeah, I was sad to hear this. I was HUGE into Motown growing up.

    Look who is backing up the Ronettes: (is that a Duo Sonic?)

    I had a serious infatuation crush on the Ronettes the first time I saw them. Beautiful girls, great vocals, enduring songs.
