Biography
Be My Baby. She is the ex-wife of producer Phil Spector.Kept a near prisoner by Phil Spector throughout her teens and 20s, she eventually left the abusive relationship to raise her son, and reestablish her languishing singing career. Many attempts fell flat; even 1976’s Say Goodbye to Hollywood, written by Billy Joel and with backing from Bruce Springsteen and his E Street Band, didn’t take to the charts. Her 1980 album Siren, produced by Genya Ravan, featured a Ramones cover but was not a hit. In 1986 she was featured by Eddie Money on the hit single
Take Me Home Tonight, singing the line “Be my baby” as part of the chorus.Her most recent album Last of the Rock Stars features work with Keith Richards, Patti Smith, The Raveonettes and others, including a cover of a Johnny Thunders song. Her previous EP She Talks to Rainbows was produced by and included a duet with Joey Ramone. In 2003, she released through her website Something’s Gonna Happen, a five-song EP of Marshall Crenshaw songs recorded in 1989. Her 2006 European summer tour was postponed when her husband became ill.

The part in "Mayor of the Sunset Strip" where Brian Wilson hears Ronnie's version of "Don't Worry Baby" for the first time is heartachingly gorgeous.

I discovered Here Today, Gone Tomorrow on an Uncut CD my brother got with the magazine, and it's currently one of my favourite songs. Can anybody help me out and tell me when this song was recorded/released, and who's performing male backing vocals on the track? Cheers. :)

If you look on the Colpix and Buddah Years album by the Ronettes, you can find a bunch of Ronnie's early solo stuff, including her DISCO SONG. OMG. This is a total revalation to me- I thought I would never get to hear that stuff...

Number six in the top listeners with only 8 plays? That's kind of sad.
