It's a pre-Philles era picture (probably around '61 or '62), taken at the legendary Peppermint Lounge, here in NYC. It used to be on W. 45th (btwn 6th & 7th Aves). The Ronettes were the 'house dancers,' and Joey Dee & The Starliters were the house band at that time.
In Ronnie's autobiography, she wrote that it was frustrating for them to work evenings in the hip Peppermint Lounge and then have to go back to high school the next morning.
So why can't i find this version anywhere but here ? Have been looking for it ever since Rodney on the ROQ randomly played it around 1980 & burned it into my brain. The Ronettes were my favorite girl group in the early '60s yet i had not heard this record til then. I was like . . WoW ! Sigh
@amgervinus I know,..rediculus :/ It's his fault that the Ronettes aren't much more famous,...it's not that they weren't good enough at all! Out of all the girl groups including all the much more successful ones like the Supremes and that, the Ronettes are my favourite :) They were unique
This was one of those instances where Spector used Ronnie's vocal on a Crystals track. There is another version with the actual Crystals lead (La La Brooks) singing lead. Both versions use the exact same backing track. In any case, neither version was released at the time, recorded in late 1963.

I always loved this backing track - it always reminded me of a big, sprawling, panoramic western (film).
Totally under the radar of fantastic.
Was there ever a more magnificent girlgroup than the Majestic Ronettes?
No.
no sir
no
No
No sir there was not.🎤🎶🎶🎶🎶
I love her voice so much...
....
Never heard this before. Classic 'Wall of Sound'..
Hard not to love them.
Soaring 'railroad to the sky' sound with Ronnie riding the wave.
The Ronettes have to be the best girl group ever, Love them

what happened to the Peppermint lounge?

Many thanks for putting a smile on my face today:) MY fav. girl band of all time... Thanks.
girl group
Ronnie sounds just great.
She always did. Always.
Beautiful song, I shall call it a classic.
Never knew the Ronettes recorded this. I know of the Crystals and the Dixie Cups' versions.

I just checked and it's still not on streaming. Big pity. This is my favourite Ronettes song!
Real majestic music. 👑
My favorite girl group ever
Love the Ronettes, beautiful ladies with great beautiful voices. The best ever.
Moi aussi, je les adore.

I really loved there beat when I was a kid I always wanted to be the drummer for them
Saw them at The P/Lounge.........only 15 at the time. .... I know to young to be there, fell in love with Nedra.
I love them forever, from France.
❤️
@@annach7914 tu me trouveras toujours là :-))
Great Hal Blaine close
EPIC GREATNESS!!!
r.i.p my Queen verônica benett💔🥀
First released in 1976 on an album compilation.
great group and song james
Crystals arrangement; Ronnie singing vocal. It works!
Nedra was the hottest chick in this group.
Indeed she was.
most glamorous girl group of all, but my fave and absolute glamour queen among them was Estelle. and Ms Veronica can still call me anytime, I wish!
I actually think Ronnie was the sexiest one, but then I'm not a man!
Time has passed but I'm still taken by Nedra.....thankfully.
Can''t agree but I will say that in the history of rock 'n' roll they rank 1-2-3
girls are so smart
I didn't know that girls can tell originally was a ronettes song

❤️❤️👍🏿
For this song, I can deffo say stereo is better. The one done by “Monotostereotracking” is amazing.🌹✨
that's andy samberg
on the left
Andy Samberg was born in 1978 about 16 years after this picture was taken if the info above is close on the picture date.
So why do the notes say the “artist” is the Crystals? Definitely Ronnie singing.
