Ronnie Spector 1977, hand-drawn in London, upon the release of her new single “Say Goodbye To Hollywood” in 1977, age 34.

Veronica Yvette Greenfield, known as Ronnie Spector was an American singer who co-founded and fronted the girl group the Ronettes.
She is sometimes referred to as the original “bad girl of rock and roll”.

Ronnie formed the singing group with her older sister, Estelle Bennett, and their cousin, Nedra Talley, in the late 1950s.
They were signed to Phil Spector’s Philles label in 1963 and he produced the majority of their recording output.

The Ronettes had a string of hits in the 1960s, including “Be My Baby” (1963), “Baby, I Love You” (1963), “(The Best Part of) Breakin’ Up” (1964), “Do I Love You?” (1964), and “Walking in the Rain” (1964).
In 1965, the Ronettes were voted the third-top singing group in England behind the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.

Ronnie married record producer Phil Spector in 1968. Following the couple’s divorce in 1974, Ronnie reformed the Ronettes and began performing again.

In 1980, Spector released her debut solo album Siren.
Her career revived when she was featured on Eddie Money’s song and video “Take Me Home Tonight” in 1986, a Billboard top five single.
In the song, she answers Money’s chorus lyric, “just like Ronnie sang”, with, “be my little baby”.

She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Ronettes in 2007.

Spector died at her home in Danbury, Connecticut on January 12, 2022, shortly after a cancer diagnosis, at the age of 78.
